Dear Flu,
There is no easy way to say this, but
you are disruptive and really bug me
you are disruptive and really bug me
producing chaos everywhere you travel...
infiltrating my mind, body and spirit
causing an inner battle between cells
you really need solitary confinement
you really need solitary confinement
Exhausted, I just want to sleep, but NO
cough
COUGH
COUGH
sneeze, sneeze, SNEEZE & WHEEZE
in fits of fever, visions take form
and all becomes UNclear...
sipping chicken soup for the soul
inspiration in each spoonful of noodles
drinking honey and chamomile tea
trying to find relief, I just want to breathe
You arrived uninvited, an intruder
seriously, you make me feel ill
It's now time for you to leave. I've
seriously, you make me feel ill
It's now time for you to leave. I've
packed your germ filled bags, consider
this your eviction notice...
your unhappy host....

"drinking honey and chamomile tea" good anytime. The same "bug" has been making the rounds at our house too. Hope you feel better soon.
ReplyDeleteThis is great.. love the tone and setting of an eviction note. Exactly how it should be.
ReplyDeleteI hope you are recovering - get well soon!
ReplyDeleteEvict the germy thing and pitch it in the sea. Never fun. Hopefully it is on its way out.
ReplyDeleteOh, i am sorry to hear you have been ill. I enjoyed the poem and hope you are soon feeling better. By the way, i dreamed of Pup early the other morning. I so rarely do, and it was so lovely to see him in my dream.
