Sometimes pain may be unbearable. But the doctor's duty is to save lives at any cost. The conflicting things are put in nice perspective with great humor. Thank you.

A fantastic write Valsa. He dialled the wrong number, instead he could have called butcher. His all pains would have vanished in one chop.........Sorry for this humorous comment. I really laughed a lot. Ha...Ha..Smiles.....

Well...sometimes, life may turn out to be very bitter that it simply becomes unbearable, but to decide to take your own exit may not be the best. Hope exists where there is life.....but why call the doctor? ......ha! nice poem!

Lively humour here, but I think Limericks can also be used for more serious expressions stated in tongue-in-cheek style. I have a few of them written, if you feel interested.

Chapstick can help dry lips any time, was the doctors remedy duck tape? . I got a chuckle out of this one, good doctors are very hard to find, bad patients to easy.
