Spring Time Sniffles

Spring Time Sniffles I feel a tickle in my nose and then, my eyes begin to itch and so I know. A bout of my hay fever will begin, Not long before my nose I’ll have to blow. Spring for me most times will bring no joy, For weeks with windows closed I’ll spend my days. To keep the pollen out, this quest employ And sniff and snort all kinds of nasal sprays. And yet, I’ll watch the new buds on the trees, And marvel at the coloured changing Spring. And if I venture out, and hear the bees Be mindful if disturbed that they may sting. However, Spring will end the Winter’s cold, And warm the earth so Summer can take hold. 23/2/2023
