Odes to Codeine: Wordful Wednesday

Odes to Codeine
A Bad Haiku By Jenni

Oh Codeine! My Love!
You caress my lungs... I sleep!
My pharmacist rocks....

There once was a blogger named Jenni...
Who was coughing harder than many.
So she got her some codeine
and though she was so green
She slept better than a drunk guy at Denny's.


Codeine, Codeine! I love you so!
I will never let you go!
Even though you give me a hang over
I love you almost as much as I love Edward from Twilight!

(Did you even notice how hard it is to find a word that rhymed with over?)

Head over to Angie's Seven Clown Circus for more Wordful Wednesday fun!

i love how the haiku turned into a limerick. codeine is definitely the best. maybe wednesdays should become "favorite drug day" ?

angie said...

Ah, looks and sounds like that elixir is the perfect cure for your TB. :)

You should send that in to the drug company......I mean, what a great advertisment! :)

You are a funny girl! By the way.. I feel a little tickle in my throat (..thats what she said..) and I think I need some of that cough syrup! Give it!

Anne said...

I hope you are feeling better soon and that the codeine is making you not care if you are sick or not until you do.

The Stiletto Mom said...

I actually survived all of last week on a diet of codeine and diet sprite! Wee Hoo!!! Hope you feel better, that is a nasty bug going around!

Eudea-Mamia said...

You almost make me want to lick my pediatrician's floor to get some of that stuff.

It is the ambrosia of the Gods.

So glad you're feeling better! Now get some help.

Were you on the codeine when writing these? Codeine seems like a good source of inspiration for limericks. :)

Clover rhymes with over. But that is all I can think of

Dee said...

you had to throw in that Twilight didn't cha?

So I just found out that Twilight is set in a town here in Washington called Forks. DUH?

I've been there so now I'm thinking I might watch the movie, but I don't now about reading books about vampires....?

HaHa! I wish my son liked it, it was like pulling teeth trying to get him to take it last year when he broke his arm!

That reminds me, I still have a full bottle in the medicine drawer...

mommaof4wife2r said...

so funny...and sometimes it's just best to suck it up and take the meds! just got a call from the school...whooping cough case confirmed at #1's school. yikes!

Robin said...

Sure nothing rhymes with "over" but then again try coming up with one for codeine! (Schmo-deine? Blow-deine?)
Glad you're enjoying hittin' the bottle.
