Steroids. (Again)

At last the steroids kick in,

You think that life is fine.

Doing what you want to do

Until that fatal time.

When the pills are finished,

And the downward trip begins.

You can be sure they'll punish you

For all your previous sins.

Oh no, does this mean you’re on the dreaded steroids again Don?

[Hidden in reply to HungryHufflepuff]

No, it means I’ve just finished a 7 day course with them and antibiotics.☹️ I’ll probably go quiet for a bit now. 🙄

[HungryHufflepuff in reply to Hidden]

Well I hope you’re feeling somewhat improved anyway. And I’ll look forward to reading your next rhyme when you feel up to writing one.

Are you implying Master Po that your much loved and revered rhymes are fuelled by drugs.i am shocked and may have to seek alternative spiritual guidance or perhaps i might just ask the name of your dealer.

Humble greetings.Grasshopper Ski's x

[Hidden in reply to skischool]

Nah! I’ll just go back to being the grumpy old so & so I was before I started taking them. 😘

Such an imagination, where does it come from, keep them coming Don along with the witty pictures, they always make me smile, and skis comment have me laughing out loud x

Ah, the ups and downs of steroids! Hope you feel ok now, Don. xx Moy

[Hidden in reply to MoyB]

I'm fine thanks, Moy, and well used to the roller-coaster life we have to lead. You take care now. This changeable weather, hot one minute, cold the next, takes some dealing with.

Thanks for the morning chuckle. Please don’t “go quiet.”We need you to keep our spirits up.

Love your poem. I have COP or BOOP and have been on various levels of steroids since March this year, if I try to drop below 5 mg daily I get a chest infection so I’m not going to stop. Not sure what the side effects will be? I’m 57 female and trying to loose weight and exercise but need 02 to exercise. Not sure why I can’t get off steroids, maybe I’m just feeble and need to be harder on myself?

Self-discipline is a wonderful thing, I could do with a bit more of it myself. 🙄
