My ode to ginger

Ginger

Feeling sick filled up my day

I didn't think there would be a way

to feel like a human being

before 12 weeks, oh how that would be freeing

I searched and search for a cure

to help me feel good and protect a baby so pure

I found lots of ideas but nothing firm

but I bought and bought in hopes of being less infirm

To my dismay they didn't work

I still felt like I was going to hork

Prescription pills were in my future

a prospect I was sad for my growing creature

Then one glorious evening when my prospects were dim

Steve arrives home with ginger he bought on a whim

Try this he says I bought it for you

in hopes that you feel better and the house will be clean too

I took it with hope for the label read

helps with nausea no need to take with bread

In one glorious half hour the light started to shine

my nausea lessened what would happen with time

I'm pleased to say I feel so much better

no more nausea it worked to the letter

so if you feel ill go in pursuit

of the magic cure that is ginger root

I LOVE YOU GINGER!
