The flu, a virus, bronchitis or maybe just a cold.
No matter what, all other plans on now on hold.
A cup of hot tea with a spoon of honey mixed in.
Ma’s chicken soup as popular as it’s ever been.
A favorite lozenge when your throat is sore.
You know all the symptoms you can’t ignore.
Eyes watery, nose runny, you want to stay in bed.
All you know is time to sit up and take another med.
Feel better, bless you, get well, all things we say.
Here’s to good health and good living, we pray.
