Ode to a Cold : a Poem About Having a Cold
When You Have Writers Block - Why Not Write Poetry
My love has got a red red nose
It's running and she blows and blows
The cold has got her in it's throws
When will it end? Heaven only knows?
The cold and damp of Winter days
Plays havoc with your passageways
One's sinuses are set ablaze
And headaches that can last for days
Oh Spring where is thy sunny spell
Come visit me and make me well
In thy warmth please let me dwell
In doing so these cold symptoms quell
Orange Juice I drink it regularly
So these bad colds can't get to me
It pays to take your Vitamin C
And build up your body immunity
I know not from where this poem came
My writers block it was to blame
To publish nothing would be a shame
So a rhyme I penned for page view gain

Post a CommentThank you for sharing your thoughts!
What a cute poem :) You are so creative.
I feel like I'm coming down with a cold...
@Michele The fact that you kept trying to leave a comment before makes it even sadder that practically nobody has read this poem. Oh well, maybe next winter I will get a surprise when lots of people feel the need to search for poems about colds.
Out of the 70 pvs that you got on this one, I probably contributed to one-third of them! I remember the day you published this and I tried over and over again to leave a comment because the site had a glitch that day! I loved the line, "In thy warmth please let me dwell" Great one, keep plugging along, Tony :) cheers
Hope you get your thousand!
Nice!
good job
haha cute, my house has all been experiencing the cold/flu bugs lately so this gave me a smile
I love this poem! Thanks for sharing! 5*
