Green Eggs and Sickle Cell

This was a poem written for me by a couple of friends. I loved it so much I knew I had to post it on my blog, with their permission of course.

"Green Eggs & Sickle Cell"

I do not like sickle cell, no I do not, not with a fox, not in a box,
I do not like it, not with a mouse, not in a house,
I do not like it, now, live real nice despite the sickle cell splice,
not in cold weather or ice,
nor in November with pumpkin spice,
but live real well despite sickle cell, make rhymes I do really well,
for the blog about sickle cell, for Jon, our friend, with the the smile so swell,
until next time, when we make our next rhyme, for the blog about sickle cell.
