A Partial Remedy To Snoring

It can be really disturbing to others
when you the one does indeed snore
they even may not be aware of it
denying it all thinking it's another roar

Once the person admits they're the one
then the way is open for a solution
but what can be done to remedy it?
certainly not to go on a vacation

One thing that sometimes does work
is steam inhalation like having a cold
cover head as steam you'll inhale
clearing the nostrils so feels like gold

In my experience, this did work
but only for a short period afraid to say 
the effects were inconsistent for me
at least it helped even if not to stay

Trust and pray this piece was a help
to encourage those that suffer from this
it also cleared my mouth that's very dry
but sadly not for long shattering my bliss

G'day Gordon … certainly a marriage debate at times. There's many so called remedies that are tried. I suppose the worst scenario would be a snorer married to an insomniac - thank you Gordon - Lindsay

Hi Lindsay, Glad you liked it, funny you should say that as my wife Christine has some problems in sleeping and I don't mostly and I frequently snore so many a joke is shared in the mornings. Have a great day, Gordon

This well penned piece brought back so many memories, as Frank was the World's loudest snorer! He attended a sleep clinic at St Thomas' Hospital in London, where they eventually lasered his soft palette, which did not cure it but reduced the volume a little. Oh what I would give to hear his snoring again... Great write Gordon thank you. With kindest thoughts Ann xx

I am a light sleeper, so a snoring mate sometimes keeps me awake! I think most people snore, some just louder than others! enjoyed the read :)

Thanks Sandra, glad you enjoyed it and as you say probably most folk snore just some louder than others. Hope you're having a pleasant day, Gordon

Snoring means you are in a deep sleep. At least you don't have apnea! Great sage poem, Gordon and thanks for your comment on my poem.
