The Pleasures Of Winter !

I have been sitting in bed with a cold
      Looking pale and feeling quite old
Somebody sneezed when passing my way
      I wish I'd been somewhere else that day

I have pastilles for sniffles and germs that lurk
      Some sweets to soothe sore throats - they do not work
I have tissues for mopping up noses that run
      And hot water bottles - this isn't much fun

Doggy looks and says ' Please come to play '
      I try to ignore him, 'No not today '
I cough and I sniffle, I snort and I wheeze
      Excuse me a moment while I have a sneeze
