Pneumonia Blues

I can't believe that I have pneumonia, yet again! And as usual it comes at the worst possible time. But what can one do but make the best out of a bad situation?

Please mister pneumonia go away.
I don't have time to feel bad today.
I have work to do and things to say
And I simply don't have time to play.

I cannot breathe and I cannot sleep.
In fact all that I can do is weep.
I cannot even utter a peep.
I cannot sow and I cannot reap.

My nose is stuffed and my head is to
And I simply don't know what to do.
I am feeling down and oh so blue.
I'm sick and tired of dealing with you.

It's off to the clinic I must go
Because my doctor proclaimed it so.
My immune system is down too low;
It's in trouble again, this I know.

There will be no more writing for me
Till once again I'm fit as I can be.
But I will be back, you wait and see
Happy again and smiling with glee.

Please don't go away while I am down
For it you do, I will surely frown.
If you need a lift to stay around.
Think of me in a hospital gown
