He said his health was surely failing
Yet he was as healthy as could be, with
Pills and bottles in every corner,
Overflowing for everyone to see.
Chronic ailments, aches and disorders,
He knew every symptom off by heart,
One by one, with all he was afflicted
No mistake logging each to his chart.
Determined he had every condition,
Relating how his days must be nigh,
Inspired knowledge from every channel
Afraid he'd miss one before he would die.

This one just cracks me up. You did a great job with the images on this one. It reminds me of at least ten people that I know :)) Love this Ann!

Hehe.... this is just priceless. How some seem t live their lives always thinking there is something wrong with them, some ailment, some disease. I could never live that way. I'd be a fraid to leave the house for fear of getting sick:)) Keep it forever flowing! Blessings Bel:f

lol...I know a couple of these myself... as for me, I figure why waste a day basking in negativity if one can be surrounded by the positive.
Hugs and Happy Holidays

lol very interesting poem. It must have taken a while to get it where each line matched up with the corresponding letter, yet still rhymed and flowed. I like this one a lot.

This was funny, and yet sad. It's amazing but people really do get like this. The picture fits perfect with the acrostic lol. Well done Ann

I love it!So cool how you wrote this.Wish I could come up with something so unique!You have a great mind and a wonderful way with your wording and your designs of your poems.My hats off to you and great applause from me!

I've actually known a few people like this. And some who you dared not mention an ailment of your own because if they didn't already have it to, they did now. Your poem lends humour to an otherwise sort of sad situation... I personally feel that being able to see the humour in most things, helps us through those moments when things look bleak or disappointing.
I like what you've done here, Sis
An entertaining, fun to read piece yet still keeps us open to the unfortunate side of things, even hypocondria. The last line is priceless

I like this acrostic. It was very lovely written. Thank you so much for sharing this with me and the rest of AP! God bless you in all that you do and warm holiday wishes sent from me to you. Keep up the excellent work my poetic friend.

Nice :)
i like this acrostic...the poem reminds me of my grandma
-
AnnD... this is very sad...
I suffer from some measure of paranoia myself, but I think that this is extreme. It's hard to think that there are many people living out there with the same problem...
A very lovely acrostic, with lovely rythym and flow. Nicely scribed, with a rather funny picture. Thanks for featuring, and thank you for everything you do to make AP a great site!

LOL,
thanks for this entertaining write, reminds me of my mother, bless her heart. Once I told her that if I were to say to her that my pinky toe was hurting, I was sure that her's would hurt too. The following day she called me and said, "I know you won't believe this, but my toe is hurting, though it's not my pinky toe, it's the one next to it!", my response to her was, sorry, mother, it's all my fault. Though she does have some health issues, and we don't make light of those. We are able to sometimes laugh and joke at our issues, all in fun.
Sincerely,
Sassy
