Subj:.Colored Pills Poem (S542c)
From: gordonschuk
on 5/30/2007

A row of bottles on my shelf
Caused me to analyze myself.
One yellow pill I have to pop
Goes to my heart so it won't stop.
A little white one that I take
Goes to my hands so they won't shake.
The blue ones that I use a lot
Tell me I'm happy when I'm not.
The purple pill goes to my brain
And tells me that I have no pain.
The capsules tell me not to wheeze
Or cough or choke or even sneeze.
The red ones, smallest of them all
Go to my blood so I won't fall.
The orange ones, very big and bright
Prevent my leg cramps in the night.
Such an array of brilliant pills
Helping to cure all kinds of ills.
But what I'd really like to know..........
Is what tells each one where to go!

These are great shots so far! Iggy, I also have a child with the obsession of Star Wars Lego. We just got the Star Wars- The Visual Dictionary through Schoolastic, it has a picture and description of every Star Wars Lego set ever made and what year they made it.

A close up of a variant of a dry fly (that I tie for trout fishing). It is mounted on a wine bottle cork for the shot. Thanks for the encouragement on my previous close-up/macro attempt. Really enjoying the other submissions and don't get me going on the Lego. After raising four sons, our house was awash in the stuff, swore year after year that I was going to put the Lego Corp down on my income tax as a dependant LOL.
