Ōde to a Cōld
There’s little in life that I hate quite so much
As sniffles and coughs, high fevers and such
But come that certain time of year
For us this past Sunday
That sneaky bugger, the cold
Decided to have quite a fun-day (er…fun week so far actually)
With fever and headache my daughter did wake
That progressed to a cough that made her chest ache
By Thursday we dropped in at the Doctor’s to see
If anything worse than a simple cold this sickness might be
Good news; pneumonia and bronchitis it’s not
Bad news; it’s that darn everlasting annoying cough that everyone’s got
……and it’s going to last at least one more week!
