Snow White Flu

There is not much to say
nothing much to do 
Still testing positive 
feeling sad and blue

For over a week now
the furthest I’ve been
Is to the bin and back
and the path between

I thought I had Covid 
now I’m not so sure 
I may have Snow White flu
there may be no cure

Named after the small folk 
my symptoms are clear 
I don’t need a Doc
to confirm my fear

I’m sneezy and sleepy
grumpy and dopey 
Feeling rather bashful 
and not too happy 

I’m sure all will end well 
like a good cartoon
So for now That’s all folks 
from this loony tune!

Callaghan - what a wiz...she
Conjures up old Disney
When "Once upon a time"
Was in its prime! 😊
