A Senior's Ode
"A Senior's Ode to medication".....A row of bottles on my shelf caused me to analyze myself. One yellow pill I have to pop goes to my heart so it won't stop. A little white one that I take goes to my hands so they won't shake. The little blue ones that I take a lot....tell me I'm happy when I'm not. Some capsules tell me not to wheeze or cough or choke or even sneeze. The red ones, smallest of them all goes to my blood so I won't fall. The orange ones, very big and bright prevent my leg cramps in the night. Such an array of brilliant pills, helping to cure all kinds of ills. But what I'd really like to know is......what tells each one where to go! Really?. I would like to leave you with this one piece of advice and it is IMPORTANT!'''''''''Do not take a sleeping pill and an laxative and turn in for the night. You will be sorry.
