Nanowrimo Challenge: Introduction to the Unusual Poet

Disbelief might reasonably follow introduction

To "This old lady poet also likes to work construction."

I am. I do. I do home nursing and lift patients, too,

And I feel safer lifting beams a fall won't kill. Don't you?

National Poetry Writing Month challenges are unofficial. Nobody's required to follow one set of prompts all through the month. Different writing groups use different sets. This year I've chosen to follow the prompts at napowrimo.net, just to make it more of a challenge, and I've had a hard time keeping that page open day by day, because Microsoft. 

The poems will be written, though...if not written, or posted, on the correct days.
