My Blue Space Ship

l live in a little Space Ship
its all shiny and lovely blue
and l wish you could all see me
for today its nice brand new

l float around the room
where l made a little flume
it has a window for the sun
and l pull faces for the fun

It has a lovely steering wheel
and l can take it any where
and just stop it if l feel
put on door the sign 'beware'

it has a radio that is clever
l can speak rubbish all the time
it will never, ever, ever
say ' your'e been knocking back the wine

So another day of drifting
in my Space Ship made of Blue
and my painkillers are a lifting
so l see World, in better view.



poets note;
 l have to take painkillers 24/7 for my illness, but its not all bad lol.

I am a retired pharmacist so I know what these pain killers can do both good and bad. But if they can help you get through the day then it is worth it. Good poem

I am sorry you have to take painkillers every day. Don't worry, though; I have to take seven pills every morning for my various illnesses. Loved your poem. Perhaps it's for the contest of Star Trek? If so good luck.
