The Ten Days of Covid


On the tenth day of Christmas, 
my true love gave to me;
one dose of Covid, 
breathless and restless, 
tire and fatigue, 
loose bowels and sickness, 
sore throat and acne, 
phlegm, cough and sneezes, 
acute loss of smell, 
aches and pains, 
cycling high fever, 
and a lung full of pure misery.

Sorry for such a late response, thank you for your well wishes. It's crazy that it can still be affecting so many people. Hope the year is treating you kindly x
