Frail, Feeble, and Feverish

 Its been over seven weeks since my head cold devolved into bronchitis
Despite lots of rest and comfort and a pharmacy-worth of goodies,
I started feeling worse, so it was back to the doctor's office.

 So, now I have antibiotics to fight any lingering bacteria,
anti-inflammatory steroids for the lungs, and
a rescue inhaler to cover my bases.

 The best part of being sick for so long, besides the excuse to
rest with my guys, has been building my personal dictionary,
a lexicon of words I enjoy and want to write with.

Frail, feeble, and feverish have not made my list since there
are so many scintillating and mellifluous choices available :).
