Very funny. A limerick writer in the making.

Funny!! Made me laugh!!

Aw, poor Ruby, have another chocolate ice cream swirl I say,

It's bound to make the pain of gluten-free eating go away.

Trust me!

Dear Ruby,

There is nothing like a nurse with a funny bone...in your case, your writing arm!

Voted UP and FAB. Love you, Maria

I really enjoyed this poem! Life can be stressful when bathrooming us what preoccupies us most. I don't have celiac but wheat does a number on me and it seems to be added to everything. I read labels constantly and buy large boxes of Always Maxi from Costco.

always Wow this led me to think of my mortality. As much as I would like to deny this Ole tent is not what it used to be I am not youthful as I once was and long to be again. I suppose we can be youthful even when the Ole tents are falling apart. It is in the attitude. Many Blessings to you. Keep going. You will you can Phil 4:13

Got a chuckle out of your poem. Honesty is hard to swallow sometimes. You done good. Love, Skye

Lol! There are things we know we should not eat, yet we eat them because they taste so good. Too bad the consequences don't smell so good.... :)

Have some Rooibos Tea, Ruby!

Oh so funny.

A great share my dear friend.

Got to vote up and share.

Havea wonderful day.

Eddy.

Poor Ruby! I've gone through celiac problems myself and so relate to this funny (but not really when you're the one going through it) poem.

You're a trooper for taking the high road and writing this really fun poem. Hugs!

I laughed so hard here Ruby my dear that I forgot to run to the bathroom and now I don't have the runs but oh lordy what a mess.

Thank goodness now that I am an old man I remembered to wear my old man diapers but I shall always run to your hubs because they always inspire me with all of the great emotions in life - happiness, sadness, humor, philosophy , awesome writing and of course the star attraction herself - you!!!!!!!!!!!!

I sincerely hope all is well with you my dear friend these days and Colin and Tiffy and Gabriel are sending their good thoughts to you on this early summer's day by the lake of erie at 5:35pm

Pretty cute, always! : ) I think I'd prefer the ice cream though...lol! Voted up and funny!

Ruby, Rooibos Tea is a very tasty and refreshing tea. You will love it with or without milk and sugar.

My pride ran far away as well...at least we are hysterical ( as in hee hee)!

You're so funny, Ruby, poor sweet thing . . . and I'm giggling at Epi's comment about remembering to wear his old man diapers! We're not getting any younger, hang in there! Love ya, Fossi

Oh, that horn will be tuten

From the effects of a mouth full of gluten

Oh, fell the scourge of Rasputin

As you reach for another fig newton

HaHaHa... I'm still laughing with a bit of sympathy and empathy included. Great to see you have such a sense of humor. Poor baby.

Oh I feel your pain Ruby!! I miss pizza the most really--and gluten-free bread--well, let's just say I'd rather have rice for breakfast---
