Ker-Chew

There once was a sneeze named “Ker-chew” His cousin next door was named “Flu” He found "cold" in the hallway, And threw up on the walkway, I do hope he doesn’t find you! ~written for Gwendolyn's challenge~

Pokey-Another new name in the winner's circle! Congrats on your winning write. Trust me, judging this was not easy. I judged the first 2 rounds and then I took the last 16 entries to the ice cream parlor to be read aloud..the other 2 poetry judges would rate them on laff-ability. The male judge loved your personification of the flu symptoms and wasn't gonna let your entry go below top 5...Thanks for making my evening so enjoyable! Gwendolen
