Sick
I’m coughing and sneezing
I’m itching and wheezing
I have a headache and a rash
A scratch a burn a cut a gash
A pink eye and a stomach ache
My body’s barely staying awake
Twisted ankle, broken wrist,
I could never end the list.
Did I also mention that my legs are really sore?
My lips are chapped, my skin is dry, yes, indeed there’s more.
Stomach cramp, a swollen cheek,
My arms are feeling really weak.
Oh wait a sec.-It’s Saturday?
The symptoms are already going away!
