GOOSEBUMPS
     
      I experience sudden keen sensation on dermis 
       with tiny swellings erecting skin hairs momentarily 
        owing to excitement, fear or strong emotion.
        Within few seconds all calm down. 
  
        But I recollect childhood days,
        towards past to chase and to gaze.
       Memory of eruption of goosebumps on dermis flashed!
      Several attacks I had experienced,
      But all happened on a kid under twelve.
      I apprehend that’s an air-borne allergy
      affecting few children owning sensitive skin.
      
       Few times mostly at eve in winter,
       sudden rashes in lots of little lumps 
      as inflammation termed goosebumps
      appearing on cutis causing itching burning sensation.
      
       My grandma was prompt to put me on bed lying supine
       and applying herbal remedy
       by rubbing wheat-flour all over body.
      I was asked not to touch or scratch on lumps.
      She then covered me with a thin blanket.
    
      Within two or three hours 
      all swellings slowly sank to fade away     
      releasing skin tone absolute smooth.                                      

      I was grown up.
     Goosebumps were never aggressive to choose me.
    Those had left me forever.
