Winter you arrived, bringing with you

A torrent of ice, snow and cold

And yet, you brought something else in your wake

Something small, yet potent, disease

Infecting so many, as holidays approach

Next year perhaps you could try bringing some holiday cheer instead

Perhaps you could try bringing some holiday cheer instead

Odd how seven lines, can sum up so much time. Yet, it also manages to explain my absence for the past three weeks. Unfortunately, I got infected earlier than I suspected and it snowballed from there.
