JUNGLE
FEVER by Granny Annie
Traveling
through the Land of the Lost
A
virus infected our hiking tour.
It
was our business to seek out care
To
find some instrument of a cure.
Jungle
scenery and animals
Seemed
less than special now.
Superhumans
we were not
For
complex rescue to allow.
What
shelter on a hottest day?
Would
we ever reconnect?
A
burning fever plagued us
As
interactive minds reflect.
Was
it driftwood that infected us?
What
could solve this mystery?
Moving
like a continental army
We
headed toward a churning sea.
But,
“there is a Prince Charming
In
all good fairy stories” still.
Kissing
was found to be the cure
Ending
a need for any medical pill.
A
few might go again someday.
The
Land of the Lost was in each heart.
We went home healthy and happy.
We
had enjoyed the kissing part.
This is great poem. It sounds like maybe you were in the rain forest on vacation-at least mentally-when you wrote it. Hugs-Erika
