Excellent
Not yet exceptional. When the exceptional rating is reached this is highlighted
Based on a Hospitalized situation

Free as Free

by Graham Byrne

I wonder if I’ll ever go
Go to a place I want to see
See a doctor who might find 
Find the problem now with me
 
Me just somewhat tired of late 
Late in finding out what’s wrong
Wrong because I’m very slow
Slow for having pain so long
 
Long ago I had to go 
Go somewhere really bad  
Bad enough to make me know
Know there I might feel sad
 
Sad because I’d have to live 
Live elsewhere for a while 
While others waited home for me  
Me missing for my smile 
 
Smile all you like at me 
Me who you do not know
Know that I am now restored 
Restored to health right now
 
Now that I’m again at home 
Home and feeling free
Free to do most anything 
Free to help my family
