BRIAN & ANGELA

A SKELETON IN MY BED !

 

 

THERE\'S A SKELETON ~ inside of me

Now that\'s a scary thing 

But without my SKELETON 

I couldn\'t dance or swing !

My CRANIUM protects my Brain

It has two holes for Eyes

My MANDIBLE is flexible ~ for talk

And eating Grandmas Apple Pies !

 

My RIBS protect my Heart & Lungs

When I hug and kiss

My BACKBONE ~ lots of VERTEBRAE

Help me to bend and twist !

Each LEG contains four lovely bones

My PELVIS holds my FEMURS

PETELLAS join our TIB & FIB

So we can run like Lemurs!

 

TARSALS join my Legs and Feet

And PHLANGES make my Toes look neat

There\'s also PHLANGES in my Handies !

Our ARMS are so important .............

For our Hands they act as levers

My SCAPULA joins my HUMERUS ~ and

RADIUS & ULNA makes my arms complete

My CARPAL joins my PHLANGES ~ Hands like Feet !

 

My SKELETON has TWO - 0 - SIX bones  (206)

Each one perfectly in place

My BONES dictate how tall I am

And the contours of my Face !

So please take care ~ protect your bones

Treat them gently ONE by ONE

You are not just a \"Bag of Bones\"

I am your PERFECT S K E L E T O N !

 

Thanks for visiting ~ comments welcome ~ Love BRIAN XOX

 

We should never take our SKELETON for granted !

We should drink lots of MILK to provide CALCIUM

and have Phosphorus in our diet ~ BONE is Calcium

Phosphate. Modern surgery helps Seniors  to keep 

Physically Mobile all our Grandpas have replacement

Hips and Grandmas ~ \'cos they did the Prayin\' ~

replacement Knees. Take care and use a stick or a

stroller if you have to ~ and wear sensible shoes !
