Definition: An instance of a disease or poor health.
Alright class, settle down, let’s take a look, At a word that pops up, a feeling quite shook! “Illness,” you see, in the dictionary bright, Means something's not right, it isn’t quite light. It says “an instance of a disease or poor health,” A little bit tricky, let’s measure its stealth. Think about a sniffle, a cough and a sneeze, Or feeling so tired, bringing you to your knees! It could be a sickness, a fever so high, Or just a general feeling that makes you sigh. So “illness” is more than just one single thing, It’s when our bodies don't happily sing! Does that make sense? Any questions to share?
