In Bed

I’m never one to loll in bed Unless I’m feeling sick. A couch or chair would always be My lounge or reading pick. At times I’ll do a sofa sprawl When glued to the TV But only when I’m ailing is The bed the place for me. Of late, a virus and a cold Have dropped in unannounced So here I am in bed, my normal Lounging spots renounced.

Oh!!! I hope you are feeling better. I'm sure it has passed. I loved this poem, Irene. I'm the opposite, though. I LOVE my bed. I'm sitting up in bed right now with my laptop on my lap typing away. ;) Hugs to you, sweetie.

A 7 and a fav, as are all your efforts. Our beds are best for sleep and sickness to be sure. BRAVO Ilene! Best wishes, Keith

You tell that bug to leave you alone. At least you're writing, and a good one, Ilene.
