"The Sniffle Symphony: A Comedic Ode to the Common Cold"

In a world of tissues and cough syrup delight,
I found myself trapped in a flu-filled night.
My nose was a faucet, my head felt like lead,
Oh, the joys of being stuck in this sickbed!
The sneezes were symphonies, loud and grand,
A percussion of tissues in my ailing hand.
I sniffled and snuffled, a miserable tune,
While dreaming of wellness under the crescent moon.
The thermometer played a cruel game,
Dancing to a feverish rhythm, oh what a shame!
My voice, a croak, like a frog in despair,
I longed for the days when I could breathe fresh air.
A parade of medicines lined up by my side,
Each promising relief like a healthful guide.
Chicken soup bubbled, a magical potion,
Yet my appetite waned like a lost emotion.
Blankets piled high, a fortress so grand,
I yearned for health to reclaim the land.
But in this germ-ridden kingdom, I stayed,
Wrapped in my fortress, dismayed and dismayed.
Yet humor prevailed in this ailing plight,
For laughter, they say, is the best medicine, right?
So with a cough and a chuckle, I embraced the sniffles,
In the kingdom of sickness, where laughter still ripples.
