As a GP, striving daily at the medical profession, Some curious occurrences often come my way. You’ll understand I won’t betray a confidential session, But I can’t resist describing one that happened yesterday.
A couple came to talk to me,appearing slightly harassed .
The wife was pushing eighty and the husband eighty- three.
They confessed they had a problem,that they felt a touch embarrassed,
I said,trust me,I’m a doctor,you can tell it all to me.
It seemed their cosy partnership was rather in remission,
With connubial requirements being not quite fully sated.
They hoped I would restore things to their former sound condition,
So that physical involvement could continue unabated.
Advancing years will often bring diminishing reaction,
So I felt I ought to gently give a diplomatic warning.
But when I asked how long they’d felt declining satisfaction,
They said ” well,we noticed twice last night and once again this morning!”
