Anodyne Rhyme ~*Marge Tindal*~ At the very best it's therapeutic Easy to do, not much to it Grab a thought and just hang on until the pain of it is gone~ Balm the nerves with anodyne rhyme Shucks, I do it all the time It's about all that I can do until the Chiropractor is through~ Then it's time to begin anodyne rhyming, once again~ In triple dose of word-sublime I'm gonna take my anodyne~ ~*~ *Still suffering intense back and hip pain from my fall at your friendly neighborhood Cracker Barrel Restaurant* ~Ironic that the Word-of-the-Day is just the medicine I need~ ------------------------------------- Word of the Day for Tuesday September 3, 2002 - www.dictionary.com anodyne \AN-uh-dyn\, adjective - 1. Serving to relieve pain, soothing. 2. Not likely to offend, bland, innocuous. noun - 1. A medicine that relieves pain. 2.

I hope your pain is quickly gone, Marge. At least your writing hasn't suffered a bit from your mishap! |

Prescription.... One soft pillow placed appropriately... Soft music, a nice hot cup of tea/coffee.. One pen, sharpened, with ink nearby About 1000 pages of paper to write your wonderful words on.... And a computer to allow us to continue to read your treasured thoughts (If by chance the paper, stamps and envelopes are in low supply) Lastly...one gentle hug and a wish that you might get well soon... |

Marge... I sure hope that you feel better soon... I too, am in pain right now... There's something in my left thigh... It shows up on the bone scan but they said it didn't look like cancer... but I think it is anyway... So they probably are going to keep making me go through all of these tests and scans and biopsies... only to find out that it really is cancer and I was right all along and in the meantime... I will end up missing you and everyone else in Florida because of it... Sorry for the rant... but I just found out that they didn't read the other scan they did and they promised to do it today... I want so badly to go to Florida... and I so much loved your poem... ~ still hoping to see you hugs Lyra |
