Dexcom rings
Are you listening?
On the graph
Lows are blistering.
A beautiful sight
Is an overnight
Walking in no-hitter* wonderland
Gone away
Are my betas
Here to stay
Is the data.
My Dexcom alarms
Protect me from harm.
Searching for no-hitter wonderland
In the meadow we can build an organ
And pretend that he’s a pancreas.
He’ll say I’m so useful
We’ll say no man
But I will do your job
You pain in the ass.
Later on
We’ll check BGs
As we dream of a cure, please.
To face unafraid
The plans that we’ve made
Waiting for no-hitter wonderland
Dexcom rings
And I’m tuned in
On my graph
I’m improving.
A beautiful sight
I’m happy tonight
Watching my no-hitter wonderland.
(* A no-hitter is a CGM graph that stays within the lines for 24 hours)
You’re so funny. Thank you for putting your humorous twist on diabetes.
When is the poetry book going to be published? Awaiting it anxiously!
I’m amazed! You got “pain-in-the-ass” to rhyme. Your humor and poetry is appreciated. Thanks!
Love it! Had to sing it to my family! I had not heard the term “no-hitter” before. When we have days like that, we say, “Look, AB colored in between the lines all day!” Now we have another phrase! 🙂
Ahhhh I love that you sang it! <3
Lovely poem! The no-hitter wonderland is so hard to achieve for my 9-year old…maybe this season?!
I love it. Humor like this makes me happy to be part of this weird community!
OMG I was singing along with it the whole way through LOL… sooo cool 🙂
