Genu Valgum

A cycle of poems «Pediatric Orthopedics»

Knock-kneed, bowlegged, a different kind of stride
Genu valgum's the name, where the knees don't abide
By the straight and narrow, a curve in the frame
A challenge to conquer, a different kind of game

Genu valgum, oh, it's a tweak in the plan
But we'll stand tall and strong, a resilient clan
With braces and exercises, we'll find our own way
To walk with confidence, day by day

The bones and the muscles, a delicate dance
Working together, a second chance
To strengthen and align, to find a new grace
Embrace the challenge, set the pace

Genu valgum, oh, it's a tweak in the plan
But we'll stand tall and strong, a resilient clan
With braces and exercises, we'll find our own way
To walk with confidence, day by day

Some might stare and whisper, some might not understand
But we'll rise above it, hand in hand
We'll learn and we'll grow, we'll find our own stride
With pride and with purpose, we won't hide

Genu valgum, oh, it's a tweak in the plan
But we'll stand tall and strong, a resilient clan
With braces and exercises, we'll find our own way
To walk with confidence, day by day

So let the knees bend, let the legs sway
We'll navigate the world, come what may
Genu valgum, a part of our story
We'll embrace it with strength, with joy and with glory.
