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?

Why I'm married to James Dean

when I haven't had my clozapine

Whoa, Hollybobs!

Got a bit carried away once I started! Enjoying this thread :).

You're the intermittent wall suction to my chest tube induction.

You're the ginger ale to my emesis pail.

You're the eye roll and sigh to my blood sample hemolyzed.

You're the finger to my impaction,

You provoke that further action.

You're Go-Lightly before my test,

You're the reason I make a mess.

You're Versed that packs a wallop,

The tiny cam'ra that finds NO polyps!

I love you.

You're the suction to my gastric obstruction,

You're the fentanyl when on my pain I dwell.

You're the axis to my deviation

The ST to my elevation

You're the peaks in my T waves

The kayexalate to make the saves

You're the flutter to my fib

the sternum to my rib

You're the ears in my QRS

the dopamine in my stress

You're the murmur in my heart

the paddles on my cart

You're the rhythm at my junction

the cause of my dysfunction

You're the ejection to my fraction

the polydrug interaction

You're the alteplase to my thrombosis

The diffusion to my osmosis

You're the PAWP to my PEEP

The ambien to my sleep

You're the nurse and not my slave

Cheating death right at the grave

You're the Foley in my holey.

Oh that is hilarious. I just read the post before you, detailed, clinical words. I'm thinking "wow, this person has thought long and hard to make this poem!" Then I read yours straight under and LITERALLY burst out laughing! I'm still chuckling. You're a gem Farawyn, cheers for the belly laugh today. Much needed.

You rock Just and R.N, love everything you wrote. Thanks so much for your input, it freaking rocks.

Just loved R.N

R.N loved Just

They probably are nurses

and have dealt with pus

Pus for the Just

and R.N is asymptomatic

so they'll be replying

Thanks. The 2 posts are a nice contrast, yes?

Bloody oath. I had my forehead frown lines posed while reading Just and R.N's amazing post, thinking to myself 'Gee whizz, this person is on their mark! What am I doing with my life?!?'

Then the next post is from a person on AN who I quite admire with the most simple and funny poem ... The timing was impeccable.
