ODE TO PD - poem by Jan Radtke


My friend Jan Radtke dictated this to me. We wanted to share it with
all her Parkinson's pals.

               ODE TO PD

    This moment
    Listen!
    Cardinal, mocking bird, wren
    Heavenly chorus.

    This moment
    Parkie Sinemet-resistant bradykinesia,
    (Phil says- "at my pace glaciers whiz by")
    Contemplative being
    Complete contentment (surprise!)

    This moment
    Micro-moving and yet according to
    Avila's patron saint "all is well".

    This moment
    Incredibly blessed!
