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.

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.

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

Hi Valsa, I appreciate the honor and the recognition as I'm not the contest type you know. Have a Blessed day.

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.

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

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
