A friend sent me this and I thought you would enjoy it! “Douglas Florian is one of my favorite children’s poets. Here is his poem called “Cabin Fever”
I've done the wash.
I've swept the floor
I've fed the cat
And fixed the door.
I've read three books
and last week's news,
and for the fourth time
polished the shoes.
It seems like years since I've had fun. I look outside For signs of sun. I bite my nails. I crawl the walls. For lack of space I pace the halls. My mother warned me of cabin fever. I was a fool to not believe her. Sound familiar? They say we might return to more temperature in the Ohio valley soon. I am liking the stay-at-homeness, but will also relish he release to come and go as we please. We are having a laminate floor installed in teh sewing/sitting room this week. That ought to tear this up, dirty things up and take time to put together again!
