i've been sick for over a week
cold, cough, cough, cough, sore throat
and more cough
on Thursday i went to the doctor
looking for help, just got some cough syrup
and more sadness...
yet, the sun was stroking my back for a bit
and i got to seat on this pretty bench
with cement flowers on it

and i sipped from this yogi tea
the kind that comes with labels with quotes
remember my tea-advice series?
here comes a little addition to it

and by now, i feel a little better
and i can always sip, breath (even if with difficulty) and read
