I sit on top of the tall green hill
Overlooking the surrounding Wellness
And can see the spot
On the other side
Where I stood just weeks ago
With my hernia
While anticipating the crossing
To take me to where I am now
I can only wonder
Why I was so nervous
At the foot of the bridge
For the passage was swift and quick
Guided by capable hands
To ease my suffering
And though I wandered
Through the fog of pain
I persisted in my passage
And soon the fog dissipated
Along with my hernia
And here I am
In Wellness at last
Free to enjoy life
Without pain
But who knows how long
Before I get thrown
Back to the other side
