Flu

A piglet didn’t feel too well,
He coughed and sneezed all day.
His mother took his temperature,
Called 'Vetline' right away.

A vet arrived, examined him,
And said “Without a doubt –
Another case of human flu;
There’s lots of it about!”

He handed out some tablets:
“Make sure that these are taken.
Take them all, and stay indoors –
Or you’ll end up as bacon!”

The piglet suffered for a week,
Then woke up feeling fine,
But shocked his mother when he said:
“That flu was such a swine!”
