The Attack of the Virus!

A sleepless night,
Two restless days,
Woe betide the virus,
And, its unruly ways!

Made me its home,
Nay, no consent, did ask!
Fed on my fodder,
And, in triumph, did bask!

A throbbing head,
Muscles that pain and rue,
Lovely gifts, are they not?
Bundled with a sore throat too?!?

Down my throat,
The first few tossed,
Not one pill, not any,
A fear, in it, caused!

A dreaded visit after,
Swallowing of bitter truths on cue,
At long last, a diminishing furnace,
Ah! To feel all my senses anew!

P.S. Woohoo! This is my 100th post!

i think thats a super cute poem. one of the best ones i've read so far. i say tbe best one, coz honestly, when it comes to poetry about emotions, feelings and other such complications (!) i don't understand one bit. this one was simple, straight forward - about a virus. wow!
