Searching for some
adventuring
My hubby went with his mate
Ian
They dived below the
frothing seas
Everything was ready:
everything was cool
Had lots of fun chasing all
those fish
Searching for that old
shipwreck
Seaweed and Corals growing
upon her hull
Water: crystal clear beneath
that sun
But then trouble came to
spoil the day
Rising up to that sunny
surface: rough
Panic set in and caused a
turn
Ambulance came and took him
off
To the Royal Adelaide
Hospital
This was way back in 1987!
Vanessa and I were waiting
at home
So many miles away in Sedan
I just knew that something
was wrong
As I watched the clock
ticking
On that wall: shadows
elongating
Finally Ian and Kathy were
there
At our door: “Tim’s in hospital at RAH
He’s in the hyperbaric chamber
There’s a bubble in his blood
He’ll be okay! Don’t worry now!”
We travelled there to visit
him
All we could see was
That great big orange tank
Tim inside: recovering
From Nitrogen Narcosis!
