Sickness Mambo Number 5

mammyo3

A little bit of puke on the couch

continuous coughing makes them say ouch

three little boys lying in beds

three little boys with very sore heads

 

Some more sick found on the floor

even more by the bedroom door

I think that's more in the shoe

why can't they just go to the loo

 

And the coughing starts again

the tears are pouring down like rain

temperatures going up and down

staying off school makes them frown

 

A lot of whinges and a groan

don't like the colour of skin tone

I'll phone the doctor just in case

this cold gets more outrageous

 

Cough cough hack wrretch and wheeze

can I get more medicine please

mummy my throats really sore

and I'm boiling to the core

 

Mummy can I get my inhaler

I look at him getting paler

I'm now shivering and starting to freeze

Can you put on the heating please.

  • Comment from author about the poem: Mambo number 5 by Lou Bega was on the radio when the kids were ill and this ended up getting sung as the alternative version. This is part of a collection I done, never published just written in a book called the mad mum collection, poems by a demented housewife, just a bit of fun and something for the kids to read when they are older.
