Dot to Dot

I have the dreadful chicken pox,
Oh what a sight to see.
I don’t want to be a chicken though,
I just want to be me.
I’m very, very itchy,
But not allowed to scratch.
I can’t go to birthday parties
Or even walk the dog.
I’m stuck inside for ever,
I’m like a speckled frog.
I tried a sticky oatmeal bath;
It didn’t help one jot,
So I’ll take a stubby pencil
and practice dot to dot!
