ELEPHANT An elephant is sitting on my chest, It's comfortable there, I want it anywhere But have his butt exactly there to rest. He crushes every silly hope to breathe. He loves to hear me wheeze, I cannot even sneeze. He's chosen me to be his favourite seat. If you, sweet friends, do know a cozy zoo? For lazy elephants, So I can raise my hands And give my Ventolin a puff or two? *** November 6, 2016

Indeed, what Jan said, Great humor for a serious subject. MY husband has had this so bad that he had to rush a few times to ER. It really sucks and the cost is expensive!!

Serious subjects should be discussed lightly, still serious enough, but with a smile :)

Exactly. Or go from a warm room into cold outside. Or if you innocently want to sleep at night. Shoo elephant!
