Each day is different from a hearing perspective,
walking regularly helps to orientate oneself,
sometimes your balance is out of quilter,
a walking stick helps keep your equilibrium,
conversations can be interesting and funny,
people never quite hearing what you say,
though their kindness touches you when they say,
hope your leg gets better soon,
and you laugh when they leave you,
to go on your way, next a big day looms,
when you finally enter the town centre.
