My Monday Metrical Musings #256

woman holding rope with bell near body of water

The Bell of Hope

Ring forth the Bell
The Bell of Joy
The Bell of Hope
The Bell of Life

Ring forth in
18 months time
Because
It means we survived

The visits
Every three weeks
To receive the sister drips
Paclitaxel and Carboplatin

Not forgetting
The lone ranger
Bevacizumab
(Can’t they have simpler names?!)

We will put them up
Temporarily
As long as they work
To

…keep away the bad agents
…give us no side symptoms
…offer strong resistance
…protect our very existence

We hope by end 2026
We can ring that bell
And to everyone tell
The Bell of Hope

Ring this bell
Three times well
Its toll to clearly say
Our treatment’s done
This course is done
And we are on our way!
