The Ragtag Daily Prompt for today, is RDP SATURDAY: COLD to create prose, poetry or imagery and share.
Is posting a poem from last year allowed? I wrote this Minute Poem a year ago when I was suffering a real stinker of a cold.
The Cold
I have a fever in my head And fear with dread My nose won’t stop Drip dripping drop The aches and pains and rasping cough Are quite enough To make me groan Sniff, sneeze and moan From a box I pull out tissues to wipe issues (if truth be told) of snot from cold.

In case my poem is an invalid response to the #RDP Prompt, here is a cold photo I took this winter. It is a photo (with no effects added) of the surface of a pond.
My thanks to #RDP PROMPT

Lesley, let me tell you your poem is absolutely NOT NOT VALID!!
RDP is a platform for bloggers to share their work.
