It’s no fun being ill
And it can kill
Especially if you’re over the hill
But in this case I don’t think it will
Cos you’ll take your pill
Which is quite cool.
For where there’s a way there’s a wool
Especially if you take your pool
And keep relatively stool
And don’t drool
But have your fool
Of life and not charge around like a bill.
So get better soon, lill by lill,
Don’t be a dill
Remember – if you go through the mill
You come out as a flower.
Ind that’s pratty gud.

Thanks, Cynthia. Apparently they appreciated it! I wondered if the next one should entail a Consonant Shift – as in A great bowel shift…

What a kind and adorable poem you wrote for your friend. I also enjoyed hearing it in your voice all the way over here in Chicago. Thanks for posting the link on Andrea’s blog, Bruce. So nice to meet you. 🙂

Thanks, Lori! I like the “Friday’s Philosophy” posted on your blog most recently. It reminds me very much of the insight (I think it was Stravinsky) that says creativity lies in the ability to restrict oneself!
