In honor of Dr. Seuss's birthday, I wrote of my version of Sam-I-am.
Here is to all my fellow Celiacs!
Celiac-I-am!
I am a celiac.
Celiac-I-am
That gluten,

I do not like it,
I'm a Celiac!
Do you like gluten?
I do not like it,
Celiac-I-am.
I do not like gluten.
Would you like it
Here or there?
I would not like it here or there.
I would not like it anywhere.
I do not like Gluten.

Celiac-I-am
Would you like it in a house?
Would you like it with a mouse?
I do not like it in a house.
I do not like it with a mouse.
I do not like it here or there.
I do not like it anywhere.
I do not like gluten,
I do not like it, I'm a Celiac!
Would you eat it in a box?
Would you eat it with a fox?
Not in a box.
Not with a fox.
Not in a house.
Not with a mouse.
I would not eat it here or there.
I would not eat it anywhere.
I would not eat gluten, you see.
It makes me sick, I'm Celiac, let me be!
Would you? Could you? in a car?
Eat it! Eat it!
Here it is.
I would not,

You may like it.

A train! A train!
A train! A train!
Could you, would you
on a train?
Not on a train! Not in a tree!
Not in a car! I'm Celiac! Let me be!
I would not, could not, in a box.
I could not, would not, with a fox.
I will not eat it with a mouse
I will not eat it in a house.
I will not eat it here or there.

Would you, could you,
in the rain?

Not in the dark. Not on a train,
Not in a car, Not in a tree.
I do not like it, I'm Celiac, you see.
Not in a house. Not in a box.
Not with a mouse. Not with a fox.
I will not eat it here or there.

You do not like it.
SO you say.
Try it! Try it!
And you may.
Try it and you may I say.
What?
Let me be,
I will not try it
You will see.
Say!
Gluten makes me sick!
It does! Even a crumb, you see! I'm a Celiac
And I can not eat wheat!
And I can not eat rye!
And I can not eat barley!
And even oats can be a problem for me,
Because cross-contamination you see!
So I will not eat it in a box.
And I will not eat it with a fox.
And I will not eat it in a house.
And I will not eat it with a mouse.
And I will not eat it here and there.
Say! I will not eat it ANHYWHERE!
I do not like gluten!
Thank you!
Thank you,
Celiac-I-am
