365 Writing Prompts: Placebo effect

. 365 days . , , , , , ,

If you could create a painless, inexpensive care for a single ailment, what would you cure and why?

I  sometimes feel ill without any reason, I get this at times, When I have too much time on my  hands and cannot find much to do, it is during  these times I feel sick, there is no headache tummy ache or any kind of ache. For such an ailment there is a medicine, it goes like this:

Sing a song of six pence a  pocket full of rye,

Four and twenty black birds baked in a pie,

When the pie was opened the birds began to sing

Oh wasn’t that a dainty dish to set before a king?

The king was in the counting house,counting out  his money.

The queen was in the parlor, eating bread and honey.

The maid was in the garden, hanging out the clothes.

When down came a black bird,and pecked off her nose.

Here’s the song it sure will cure an ailment which I described above!

Do you think  the medicine I recommended is  painless and inexpensive ?
