In The Hospital Waiting Room Comments

I am going to make a sign out of this poem and wear it round my neck the next time I'm in a waiting roon/on a train/standing in a queue... Hugs Anna xxx

I agree with everything Raynette said (including the sign on my forehead) . Great poem. What op? ? ? ? You didn't tell me but listened to all my moaning about mine. Naughty, naughty man. Love Gyp's

I could identify with this, Peter. I seem to have a sign on my forehead that says 'Talk to me. I'll listen, ' and so I attract all sorts. You wrote this well but I think it should have been named 'I Didn't Want To Know.' Raynette

I loved reading this one. I'm glad your wife came and saved you before that guy bored you to death :) . Peace.

Thank you for writing about things I don't want to know, but can't help thinking about. Julia

Glad to see I'm not the only one who feels like this in these situations, Pete. Warmly, Gina.

Yes, a slice of life, an unpleasant encounter redeemed by being made into a poem.

A piece of life, poetically sliced. Lovely. Susie.
