Man Flu!

This amusing poem has been written by Tracey Curtis … it is her take on Man flu!

Man Flu!

There seems to be a bug around,
I think we have it too.
The kids and I have caught a cold,
but husbands caught man flu.

We all have runny noses,
but Kevin’s lost his smell.
We all have tissues by our beds,
but Kevin has a bell.

We all seem to have sore throats,
but Kevin, he can’t talk.
We all seem to move around,
but Kevin, he can’t walk!

We all try not to moan that much,
but Kevin, lies there sighing.
We all know it’s just a cold,
but Kevin, says he’s dying.

We all have real bad  headaches,
but Kevin’s got migraine.
We all seem to ache a bit,
but Kevin, he’s in pain.

We all need our Lemsips,
but Kevin needs a nurse.
We’re all feeling very ill,
but Kevin, he feels worse.

We all have aching arms & legs,
but Kevin, can’t feel his feet.
We’ve all had a little food,
but Kevin, he can’t eat.

We all seem to have a chill,
but Kevin, he is freezing.
We all blow our nose a lot,
but Kevin, keeps on sneezing.

We all need to get some sleep,
but Kevin, he is snoring.
We all know he’s not to good,
but. … MAN FLU … just gets boring!
