Nancy Kaufman Poet Light Verse

Bladder Chatter

I sensed that my bladder might be angry at me
as recently it screams of urgency.
The other day when I heard loud chatter, I said
"dear bladder, what ever is the matter?"
He said, "lately you don't listen so I have to shout
in order for you to let fluids out. 
I've always been loyal and had your back but
please remember I'm only a sac. If you keep
stretching me I'll get out of whack."
After our little brain to body conversation I
now listen to my bladder to avoid his indignation.

Daniel Turner May 28, 2023 at 6:30 AM LOL Congratulations Nancy on POTD. I love the humor. The older we get, the louder they get for men and women! LOL Nancy Kaufman May 28, 2023 at 9:43 AM Hi Daniel, I was reading a book on the mind body connection and it actually recommends that we check in with our body parts. Most interesting. Always happy to make you laugh.

Valsa George May 28, 2023 at 6:20 AM Humorous and at the same time realistic. As we age, the sac's capacity to hold becomes difficult. So better listen as it begins murmuring without waiting to be shouted at. Really enjoyed . Congratulations Nancy on your POTD Nancy Kaufman May 28, 2023 at 9:44 AM Hi Valsa, I appreciate the honor and the recognition as I'm not the contest type you know. Have a Blessed day.

Unseeking Seeker May 28, 2023 at 4:54 AM (smiles) ~ delightful and entertaining write! congratulations on POTD, Nancy Nancy Kaufman May 28, 2023 at 9:49 AM thank you so much. I was wondering how other soupers know when a poem is selected potd? I am not that computer savvy and I only find out accidentally when perusing some one's poems.

Paul Bell May 27, 2023 at 12:47 AM Bladders do a great job, and we've only got ourselves to blame after ten pints it does refrain from going through the pain letting it out ten yards from the jane. Nancy Kaufman May 27, 2023 at 6:17 AM lol Paul thanks for visiting and every a great weekend.

Michelle Faulkner May 26, 2023 at 3:03 PM My bladder is talking to me more every day, guess I'd better start paying more attention!

Deb M May 26, 2023 at 9:31 AM Hehe thats so funny Nancy!! Just one question your bladder is a HE?!? Haha….Debx Nancy Kaufman May 26, 2023 at 12:08 PM I decided to use that pronoun only because I'm a she and some times "he's" are more authoritative and bolder. Silly write. Glad you laughed though and thanks for visiting
