Enemies Surround
Grumpily spewing expletives
Loathe the weakness taking hold
Terrorized by unseen forces
Lurking throughout household
It's becoming difficult to swallow
Swollen and heavy eyelids droop
Can't breathe through nostrils
Homemade chicken noodle soup
Hammered with aches and pains
Quilt prevents deep bone chill
Now begin to lightly bead
Ginger lemon tea and not a pill
The body braces for coughing
What occurs is a sneeze
They work well in tandem
These flus and allergies
