Halloween Poem

“A Halloween Story”

Listen my children and you shall hear
Of a Halloween story that’s rather queer
It’ matters not it you live near or far
… It will get you where ever you are!

This tiny creature of day or night
WIll sink its clinchers into you and take a bite
Like a vampire sucking your blood with all its might
Til you find you’re not feeling quite right

Then with out you knowing
You find into someone else you are growing
A Halloween story for days of yore
You’re nothing like you were before

And off to the doctor you go
To find out if there’s a problem and they say “NO”!
And you hear the very thing you dread
They tell you that “Its all in your head”

When acutally the fact of the matter is true
There are tiny monsters living inside of you
And the fact that will really give you a chill
They burrow inside of you like a tiny drill

Drilling-biting- living- breeding
It’s on your body they are feeding
Your brain -your heart- your blood- your liver
Doesn’t the thought of it just make you shiver?

That the reason you are so very ill
Is because it’s on your body they make their meal
Until you are pale as a ghost
It is the parasite- and you are the host

So heed little children to what I say
Like a vampire its out there stalking its prey
And I promise before the day is through
It will claim its next victim- It could be you!

So you shudder to think that anything
Like that could ever happen to you?
For those of us who have Lyme
THAT STORY IS TRUE!!!!
