Writing Challenge: Second Entry

Hello Alice,

So I've been sick for the past three days, which is unusual for me. I'm not exaggerating when I say my immune system is pretty hardcore (I do work around kids, so it's tested regularly) but this week has been hard. Been stuck at home, fevered, coughing, unable to keep food down, breathe or sleep. Doctor says I have a bad upper respiratory infection. They prescribed me an inhaler and some antibiotics.  Here's hoping it works so I can get back to work.

So here's my poem.

A Short Poem

Fever, fever, go away
Let me work so I can get paid.
