Sick Monk

shaking chills
even deep down
in monk robes

buried in blankets
bathed in fireplace heat
a most fitful sleep

finally woken
by poems boiling
in fevered dreams

  1. Old Ollie,

    It is indeed a rare thing to find a sick monk, being the subject of your poetic words. I do hope that he remains under the warmth of the blankets, until he is returned to good health.
    All Good Wishes and Blessings to you and the tired monk:)
