Let's have some fun!

I just read an Aussie poem. It goes:

You're the Gold to my Coast, the Vegemite to my toast

The sea to the sand, the beer in my hand

The thong to my foot, the Rhonda to my Ketut

The kanga to my roo, the barbie to my q

The Wi to my Fi, the sauce on my pie

The harbour to my bridge, the lamingtons in my fridge

The heat to my rash, the grog to my stash

The Holden to my Ute …

And it got me thinking... The people on AN are some of the wittiest I've ever encountered. Perhaps we can make our own Nurses poem this way!

Shall I start?

You're the black pen to my chart

The stethoscope on my heart ... who wants to continue?

Blood is red

Cyanosis is blue

Combine them together

And bye, bye you

You are the circumflex, to my left coronary artery

You're the RCA and LAD, to my triple surgery

you're the VT to my shock

you're the bundle to my block

you're the node to my ablation

you're the pacing to my maker

You are the qrs to my every p,

Without u? I'd have no t.

Whoa, Hollybobs!

You're the tourniquet to my amputation,

The chair to my nurses station.

The Tegaderm to my IV,

The Belmont tubing for my bleed.

Who needs dermabond when I have you?

The finest medical grade glue.

You're the clamshell for my chest

Thoracotomy to my breast

You're the trachea for my tube

Passing it without the lube!

:D

F**** awesome!

There was a senior mod called Pixie

Who, also an RN was she (or he?)

Came to AN at night

Wrote a poem at first sight

And blew us away with poetic tricksy

You're the haldol for my crazy,

The call light when I'm lazy.

You're the fluids for my burns,

The Phenergan for my stomach churns.

You're the Colace for my constipation,

The lorazepam for my agitation.

You're the sutures to my wound,

the trimming to be groomed.

I love med surg and all its folks,

Even when my med-surg folks start to choke.

Your the C to my diff

the Ben gay for necks- that's stiff

...gowns to rooms in isolation

the RT for intubation

...c-scope for colorectal cancer prevention

lasix pill for fluid retention

You're the lube for the guaiac test,

You're the nitro for the pain in my chest.
