Sick . . . .



A nose that’s stuffed,
A throat that’s sore,
Blood sugars running high.
Chills and shivers
And ears that ache,
Just make me want to cry.

Some stupid germ
Some mean virus
Has nestled in my head
Making me sneeze
And sometimes wheeze
And turning my poor nose red.

Can't clean or blog
Or do laundry
No treadmill for me today.
Will soup and tea
And a nice long nap
Please make this go away?

I'll watch TV
and get some rest
And have plenty of time to knit.
And hope that tomorrow
when I awaken
I no longer feel like like . . . .

Soup, rest, OJ, and tea.
And plenty of knitting!
Get better soon. At least you're not under 1/4 of a meter of snow to boot ;)

That is an awesome poem, Karen. I always think the best writing comes from sheer misery, which it sounds like you're experiencing right now. I bet Pea and K.C. are on the case!
