Premium MemberBETTY AND THE DOCTOR

We are pet sitting our neighbor’s cat and dog…which means we’re wearing two hats
one for Betty (she’s the dog) and one for Doctor (he’s the cat).

Dogs and cats are different…we know this to be true…
so I’ve had the opportunity to compare and contrast the two.

I’ve been walking Betty in the morning…she get’s excited once her

Premium MemberThe Doctor Said I'm Suffering From 'Bicycle Face'

I said I ain't been on no bike
He said, 'Well, there it is.'

Premature baldness and popcorn muscles
I told him I got a B in History

He said, 'What a life you're gonna have.'
This is what I'm paying for

Man hugs and comic sans garage dweller
As I lay in bed on my side

With the book open next to

Premium MemberI Will Lie to the Doctor

Do they know I invented the world? I wonder as I stare at them
We are all in this waiting room
They probably think I am the same
Nothing could be farther from the truth.
I am an alien, not from a planet, but from middle earth.

A little girl about seven years old coughs.
I give her my mind-meld look.
Her

A Poem a day keeps the Doctor Away

They say laughter is the best medicine
to keep away the ills
So from now on I decided to write only lines 
which put away the pills
Donning the role of a courtroom jester
My grey wired cells I began to pester
As I began to brew my soup on the site
My dark world broke with crystal light 
I giggled

The Doctor

He is the man that is everywhere, yet nowhere.
He is the man that is in all of time and space.
The man filled with sadness, guilt, and anger.
The man filled with happiness, love, and understanding.
He is the smartest and the dumbest.
He is protection, he is destruction.
He is loved and he is hated.
He is excitement and adventure.
He

Premium MemberA Trip To the Doctor

A trip to the doctor, these days,
Is an ordeal in so many ways
     Glued to their computers, it seems,
     They never look at your seams.
Electronic gadgets fill the room
No personal talk unless it’s doom,
     They’re always in such a rush

Premium MemberCall the Doctor

my feet smell
my nose runs
my heart breaks
my tongue is tied
my liver is chopped
my brain is cramped
my spare rib is missing
my throat harbors a frog
my sweet tooth is craving
my eye teeth need glasses
my funny bone isn’t laughing
my athlete’s foot lost the race
my sense of humor is twisted
my heel ran back to Achilles
my ear drum lost its

Premium MemberAfter the Doctor

Clement Moloch is a despicable doctor.
This physician specializes in death and torture.
For any government, he is there to be hired.
A professional assassin who has retired
is called upon to catch the evil perpetrator.
All over the world, Moloch has been a murderer.
Holland the assassin goes to Central America,
where the doctor was last seen in Guatemala.
There, Holland employs

Premium MemberThe Doctor Said

There's nothing we can do, the doctor said!
     It was December, nineteen-seventy.
At once, those words exploded in my head
     and pierced my heart- which broke in agony.

How could this be- she's much too young to die
     at fifty-four, and I, just thirty-two?
Convulsed in

Did Our Savior Fart - the Doctor Wonders

LORD Jesus, while on earth, was fully human - shelving His divinity by submitting His will to the Father's - without "discarding" His full deity. So on earth Jesus was born out of womb via birth canal, and probably got s slap on His back to gulp the first air outside Mary's womb. (LORD, help

Premium MemberThe Doctor Is Out

Jim's hemorrhoids were hurting him so
 He then went to a doctor named Flo
  With her fingers she probed
 while old Jim was unrobed
 Then Jim yelled out, "Doc, I have to go"

  It was then he started passing gass
  Right in the doctor's face, that poor lass!
 soon after Flo passed

Premium MemberJust What the Doctor Ordered

Doc said put on this hospital gown
Then remove your clothes from the waist down
My bare tootsies she clocks
As I’d removed my socks
No need for that, she said with a frown!

True story today - get my biopsy results in a month - got my fingers crossed ... wish I could have kept my legs crossed lol

The Doctor Is Not In

Let’s get one thing straight, dear
Let’s give the Devil his due
The clouds are conspired against us
The Revolutionaries hate us, too

There’s no room at the foot of the mountain
Only the sordid survive
Youth only drowns in a fountain
Only wasted memories thrive

Did you ever hear the one about
The doctor with no patience
Don’t leave me locked here in this

The Poet and the Doctor

The doctor and the poet became friends late in life--
as old men they looked over the past in similar ways,
wishing their youth had never ended, their work continued,
their lives once again resplendent and filled with promise
as the one healed the body and the other the soul....

But Time is always the master of Life till Death

Premium MemberA Visit To the Doctor

A VISIT TO THE DOCTOR

I had a bad cold,
And my throat was sore,
My husband told,
Me to go to the Doctor,
Before I got flu!
I made an appointment and was due,
To be seen at two o’clock.
I sat down next to a young man,
Who had the pock,
He was coughing and 
Spluttering all over me,
Can’t you see,
Don’t you care,
Are
