Spring Fairy Dust
Someone has sprinkled fairy dust all about
It seems this yellow stuff that’s coating all
‘Tis the annual springtime pollen settling,
If I could stop sneezing, I’d give out a shout.
But since my nose and sinuses are rebelling
It’s probably best to keep my nostrils inside
With an assortment of pungent nasal sniffs,
And spray the outside of my humble dwelling.
My farmer friend tells me pollen is important
Actually, he says it is the honeybees’ friend
But I’d be too stuffy to produce any honey
In that regard, I suppose I am very fortunate.
