Best Common Cold Poems

A swathed October,
With freckled bundle of leaves
In a child's fingers—
How warmth is supposed to be,
The ground for a bassinet....

Achooo!
It begins, almost always, with a sneeze, 
Which, in some cultures, 
Invites blessings, 
But, in some others, a curse,
As it’s held to be ominous!
Blessing or curse, soon the frequency
And the decibels increase—
Incredibly, irritatingly, inconveniently, and embarrassingly!

I wonder if it is linguistically appropriate
To call it a...

The phenomenon known as a sneeze
Hits with major velocity. Jeez!
What a mess might ensue
If you heard an “A-choo!”
From the guy on the flying trapeze.

Got a cough.
A weeze or too.
When I cough I spew.
Like as if my intestings .
Coming up too.

The Doc, bronchitis say.
Twenty smokes a day.
 I must pay with a runny nose.
Temperature, I suppose.

Hot and cold.
My blood boils.
My feet like ice.
Not very nice.
The common cold.

Love...
Is a cold,
Infecting my body,
So commonly caught,
But no cure for stupidity,
Sneezing of ignorance,
Idiocy in coughing,
Blind in the beginning,
But...
Slowly it crept upon me,
Until I,
Fully depended on the care of another,
Sniffles of distraught,
As my friends act as tylenol,
Temporarily subdueing the inevitable,
But...
Eventually the cold fades,
As i sneeze out...

THE COMMON COLD

Have you ever felt like you were going to die?
And you knew good and well the reason why;
and as you got sicker and sicker;
and the heavy gloom grew thicker and thicker,
it began to seem like the very end,
so I decided to call my...

they say it’s just a common cold
it comes across so brash and bold
	an apple a day
	it is what they say
only healthy people were polled...

Common cold
When I was a seafarer No one got the cold or the flu
on long voyages, it was only when the ship birthed
and official people came onboard we all went down
with cold/flu.
When this current pandemic pans out, we who have
been sitting in for weeks will...
