My hip hop hip wasn't hipping anymore You know how much that hipping I adore Around Florida's poole, at a late music night I hip hopped along, while smiling bright Four years later, the hip hop went down I barely could drag my leg through town The doctor told me: "Hey Dutchie dear, No hip hopping in future for you I fear" You have to replace it when time is ripe Meanwhile no hip hopping of this type I got some meds that dragged me along And I could feel Doc wasn't quite wrong Authumn came and I made up my mind This was the time for a new hip to find I went to hospital, lay down my head And did all the things the nurses said Early morn, sun wasn't even there They took me and put me in medical care I slept the dreams of innocence sleep While they discussed if my bone was to keep When I woke up I still got them all Around my bone head a shining bright ball Pain was bearable after med drip went down I just couldn't wait to hip hop through town I have to be patient, it'll take some weeks Of exercising my leg, till Doc again speaks I'm hip hopping around in a different way Wish I could find that pool again some day  Like scattered leaves...my words will flow [This message has been edited by Balladeer (10-09-2006 03:01 PM).] |

TitiaDearestTitia~ The pool in Florida awaits your return when that hip is healed and you've money to burn~ Come on down and I guarantee Bill will play a lively song for thee We'll hop and we'll bop all over the place with your exotic new hip, firmly in place~ HEY ! I see they didn't remove your sense of humor~ You keep on doing what the doc says to do there's plenty of dancing waiting for you~ *Huglets*  ~*Marge and Bill*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

Yep, humor is intact. And, your timing is pretty much on form, too, so they didn't remove your tum-tum-te-tum-tum-tum. WooHoo! Heal fast, sweetheart! |

Hey,Dutchie....that pool is here and waiting! One image I will never forget is my dutchie dancing along the edge of the pool in the dark, a glass of her favorite beverage in hand swaying like a baton leading the orchestra of the music being danced to. You will break in those new hips in no time, I'm sure, and the music will play once more. Get well, Dutchie.  |

Dear Friend Glad you are able to laugh at life. Got a brilliant idea How about we collaborate on a new children's book called "Hip on Pip" Dr Seuss would flip! Hope you can climb tree houses real soon Love you Liz |

Marge dearest friend, I'll hip hop on Bill's music any time.  Karilea, nobody's gonna steal my humor, though the tum-tum-te-tum could be improved Balladeer, my sweet friend, you hang on to that image and maybe one day it will turn into reality again Iliana, thanks for the hugs, I can use them. Sweet Elizabeth, wouldn't that be something if we could let Seuss flip??? Memories of your tree house roam my mind almost daily. Such a sweet woman you are. Neeraja, thanks for all the best wishes. Maureen, you've got plenty of energy my friend, I've seen it and loved it. I have great memories of our little talks in the pool. Like scattered leaves...my words will flow |

Titia, it looks like you'll be hip hopping around that pool again as soon as you get an opportunity. A tree house and a pool, some music and booze, and not to forget... a Balladeer at your feet! Who could ask for more?  I'm glad that hip is taken care of and healing. Be well.  |
