A Spring Lover With Allergies

At last spring is coming—Achoo!-- with songbirds and skies of clear blue. My nose will be dripping and meds I’ll be sipping while lovely blooms burst into view. Though allergies briefly displease my joy won’t be quelled by a sneeze. My eyes will be bleary, red, itchy, and teary; but bring on those fun springtime sprees!

Ahh..spring, so terribly bittersweet for the sniffly people. I used to teach school and my principal occasionally wore a shirt that read, I HAVE AN ISSUE WITH YOUR TISSUE! I am a spring sneezer too, and I have empathy for you!

Spring also awakens my irritating ply. Hmmm.
