                                                          DO NO HARM

 

For my physician

 "I will keep them from harm and injustice"
  Hippocrates


We row
together
quite gently

we try
to judge the currents
we keep an eye
on the winds

we watch
the sky
for clouds
for rain

we check
the boat
for cracks
for leaks

not much
is said
about the past
or the future

sometimes
a silver fish
swims by
and jumps

the oars
grow still
we catch
our breath.


 

by Carmen Alfonso   from her book of poems    'On the island of my bed: Living with Lyme Disease'
