Digestive System Poem
"The Organ Knights"
The small intestine, large intestine, bladder and liver,
They're all the digestive system, the food they deliver,
Down the esophagus, take a left, then a right,
They guard the rectum, who'd they? The organ knights!
After food goes down the pancreas, duodenum, and bladder,
There's always knights on guard to say," What's the matter?"
"We need to get out of here, we're food and waste."
"Have you gone through the kidneys yet?" "No." So the knights raced.
Through the esophagus, liver, stomach, and spleen.
"We're getting closer!" the food and waste screamed.
Through the aorta, solar plexus, oh what a fight,
"Here's the kidneys, food and waste." "Thank You, Organ Knights."
Then the Organ Knights went back to their duty.
Down the system again came the food and waste rooting:
"Oh Knights, Oh Knights! Thank you with might!"
"You many go out the rectum, you know." Said the Organ Knights.
Nervous System Poem
"Don't be sympathetic"
Don't feel sympathetic for the sympathetic nerves.
All they do is whine and cry because they spilled the hors d'oeuvres.
I was sympathetic once, never sympathetic again.
They increase your heart rate, puts your nap time to an end.
Little kids might say "Mommy, I really can't sleep."
But the sympathetic nerves are really making you weep.
Make you run, tumble down, other people are so sad.
Oh those sympathetic nerves make me so mad!
On the other hand though, are parasympathetic nerves.
The ones that make you behave, making other people serve.
Oh how I admire those parasympathetic pals,
Make you sleep for 12 hours, making gals act like gals.
If you wanna be my friend, sure go ahead!
Just follow this one little task in my head.
You can be shy, really smart, plan ol' crazy, or athletic.
Just please, pinky promise: YOU WON'T BE SYMPATHETIC!
