Balladeer now older,
Lost his muse for poems,
His family decided,
"He needs a nursing home."

Bally seemed quite happy,
Bed baths by young sweet girls,
Some with low cut dresses,
And lovely blond hair curls.

They fed him gourmet meals,
Had a lovely garden view,
Gave him crayons to color,
Always things to do.

The nurses noticed Balladeer,
If left for any time
Would start to lean right over,
So they'd lean him back in line.

He'd lean out to the left,
They'd straighten him and then
He'd lean off to the right,
They'd set him back again.

His family came to visit,
Asked how he liked the "home"
He answered with frustration,
Which started with a moan.

"I've only one complaint,
It's about to burst my heart,
The nurses here won't let me,
Lean out to pass a fart."

Oh, my! You've just given me a guilt complex! So that's what those dear old male patients of mine were trying to do!

WhenI was a student nurse, the very first patient I had, leaned forward in his chair as I walked in front of him, and he whipped up the skirt of my uniform form! Perhaps I have no need to feel guilty afterall!

Toe, this poem was a hoot and a holler!

Huggums snuggums!

LMFO Excellent...

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

There's only one thing wrong with this, Toe. *G* I swear he'd find a way to shoot poetic arrows at you even if he couldn't quite remember who you are... just from force of habit! LOL

And, of course... the reverse is just as true. *S*

And if y'all should happen to end up on the same front porch... they'll sell tickets. *G*

Thanks for the grins! *S*

OMG!  Yur comment was funnier even than the poem, I am in hysterics.  I could not imagine a fate worse for any nurse than the two of you renegades in one place
