Fragrant Allergy

What perfumed talc in flowers

                                                 the nose to please

                                                  on days of bloom

                                                         like these

                                            when, quite expectedly,

                                               a twitch, a squeeze,

                                          and, pleasurably, you itch

                                                        to sneeze?
