Jill

   On a cold winters day,
   Jill caught a nasty chill.
   She called out the doctor,
   Who pronounced she was ill.
   He said, drink some water,
   While you swallow this pill.
   But when fetching water,
   Jill careered down the hill.
    'Twas twice a disaster,
   When he gave Jill his bill.
   For a sticking plaster,
   And the price of one pill.

Hi Kim, Jill was very lucky to get a doctor to visit her, never mind the cost. My regards to you. George.
