Friendship

If you read my poem - Comfort - these next two might make more sense.  I have to 
say that the three poems make a good trilogy of chemo side effects.

My New Best Friend

My new best friend
Imodium
Who stops you ere’ you go again

Who’s there at your bitter end

Imodium – Friend and Foe

Friendships come and friendships go
Imodium, just so you know
It binds you up and tightly so
So you never get to go
But get to go is normal – no?
And normal means you have to flow
Cause things build up and pressures grow
Well, pretty soon you’re bound to blow

So here I sit, relief I beg
I’m sitting on a powder keg!

PS
Exaggerate? I guess I tend
But it worked out well in the end

Amusing little ditty. I like rhyme too Mike and I can always tell ahead of time who will like my poetry if I have read theirs. I am sorry that rhyming is so out of favor with so many. I need rhyme to memorize a poem. Thank you for your kind comments. Love, Joyce
