Abstract
The poem Ode on the Odyssey of lipoproteins describes the structure, functions and metabolism of lipoproteins namely Chylomicrons, LDL, VLDL and HDL. This poem is a triolet with eight lines in each stanza. Odyssey is the travel experience of an adventurous journey when someone travels far and wide. This poem describes the transport adventures of Lipids when they travel in the form of lipoproteins. The poetic form of describing the metabolism of lipoproteins was intended to kindle the interest of the learners and to gain an imaginary experience in the metabolism of lipoproteins.
