Room Enough

With her back bent, and her eyes closed,

she is lost in a sea of blankets.

She says, and hears, nothing.

.

But still, she is lovingly brought,

The wheels of her chair turn,

As she takes hers.

.

In silence

A small island of aged skin is found

Yet there’s room enough – for her

.

To finally, fully feel,

The point of it all –

In the jab of a needle.

Nothing particularly interesting to say about myself other than after 27 years working as a GP, I was delighted, at the start of December 2023, to start work as the South West Regional Representative of the Slavic Gospel Association (SGA). You can read about what they do at sga.org.uk. I am also an avid Somerset County Cricket Club supporter and a poor example of a Christian who likes to put finger to keyboard from time to time and who is foolish enough to think that someone out there might be interested enough to read what I've written. Some of these blogs have grown over time and some portions of earlier blogs reappear in slightly different forms in later blogs. I apologise for the repetition. If you are involved in a church in the southwest of England and would like to hear more of SGA’s work, do get in touch. I’d love to come and talk a little, or even a lot, about what they get up to!.
