When lupus is flaring all sounds seem blaring and my hair falls out of my head.

My hips and my shoulders feel like they are boulders and I can barely get out of my bed. :sigh:

My hands, they will swell and my eyes, they will well, with the tears of frustration and pain. :cry:

My plans and my chores go right out the door, as for progress, there is no gain.

My kids think I'm crazy, my husband thinks I'm lazy and I think I'm going insane. :wacko:

My brain keeps on fogging, I'd like to go jogging and I can't remember the neighbor kid's name. :doh:

I'm all out of rhyme, at this moment in time, but later I will come back to it.

So now it's your time, to make up a rhyme, come on, I know you can do it.

Just add your lines, right here to mine, and soon we'll have a big verse.

Count blessings or vent, whatever your bent, but for goodness sake don't curse!

at your wonderful lil' diddy......
Thank you for the smile, done with such style.....
You are oh so witty!! :love: :lol:

(I'm not poetic, but I'm still trying to come up with something. I love your poetry!!!) :D :D

In looking for another post to give a good person credit, I came across this little diddy that really needs some edit.

I'm bringing this back, from so long ago, because it made me smile.

I'd sure like to see, the rhyming in thee, so take your turn for awhile...

Yes, I know, my rhyming is lame but I think it would be fun to play this game...

Counting blessings is some times hard to do, but i have
to say i'm blessed every day i can get out of bed

venting is easy here on the board, there is always someone here
to lend an ear over how hard it is for you to bend over at times.


not much rhyming , but i gave it a try.

Friends are here in great supply
with wisdom and wit and care.
Offering their time to give peace of mind
and the courage to send us where
the doctors don't know
and others don't show
respect for our pain or our time.
Giving us strength to struggle on
and keep despair at bay.
Shouldering us and encouraging us
and helping us day by day.

there are times when I can't sleep at night but,
then there are times I sleep when it is during the day and bright

some days I feel alone
then I always know I can come here and moan


Not good at poetry, but gave it try just to put a smile on someones face
:)


Barefut-you are amazing:cheer2:

Sometimes creeping, searing, ripping, burning, shooting, stabbing

Sometimes dull, ever present, eating away, never giving up, nagging

So many faces, so many words, why is it so difficult to be heard?



Nope, I’m definitely not good at rhyming either, but I loved the idea so gave it a go :lol:
