Don't You Hate Catching Cold? |
Wrong place, wrong time. They sneezed and now it’s mine. Throat of glass, nose like a sieve. Lots of tissue-presents I give. Washing hands and face to rid, Germs from me and to bid, Goodbye sooner to this mess, Who would ever would guess, Salad bars could make you so sick, Feverish with green bogeys thick. If only I would have been more wise, Catching colds I sure despise. Sorry for myself with many laments, At my disregard for common sense. It was easier to take my vitamins, Now my nose feels stuck with pins. My poem is done and I bid you, Goodbye with an ”Achooooooo!” author's notes: Living in the north east, I got my share of colds. Fortunately, my greatgrandmother passed down a lovely remedy- Crush 2 cloves of garlic, place in a cup of goat milk, add a tablespoon of honey, heat till very warm, remove garlic clove.Drink all the milk. Then get under the covers and go to sleep. In the morning your bed smells like garlic bread. I'm not sure if it works, but we did it. Now I just eat lots of garlic and spicy foods every day. But the best cold remedy is to take one Jesus, no generic substitutes, only the original JC formula will work. It works for everything and you can't overdose. It's safe for all ages and doesn't interfere with sleep, in fact, it enhances it. |
