Sniffles and Sneezes

I've been dealing with sniffles and snotty sneezes But it's not Covid or other dreaded diseases Feel a little stuffy And my eyes are puffy I need to get well so I can have hugs and squeezes The good news is that I no longer have a fever But don't exactly feel like being an eager beaver Now I have some issues I've used all the tissues I should just cut off my nose with a meat cleaver

Hope you get to feeling better real quick. Guess who's taken to playing the victim in her most recent poem???

I’m all better, Milt. Thanks. That victim guise is the ploy of one such as she. No sympathy from me.

Hope you're better now, I think I caught whatever it was you had. I have a very sensitive computer. Hee hee Reading and commenting is all I feel up to these days, I want to write but the energy just isn't here. Have a healthy day, Bill

Oh, I hope my computer didn't infect yours with the sniffles. Your read and comment if more than enough, Bill. Get better real soon.

It's sometimes tempting to cut off our noses. A fitting poem for the season.
