Well now I really know I am getting "old"
putting myself to bed early with a cold :O
Come on orange juice, zinc, and water, do your trick
Praying here that with rest, I'll feel better -- quick!

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.

I've been dealing with sniffles and snotty sneezes
But it's not Covid or other dreaded diseases
Feel a little stuffy
And my eyes are puffy
I need to get well so I can have hugs and squeezes
The good news is that I no longer have a fever
But don't exactly feel like being an eager beaver
Now I have some issues
I've used all the tissues
I should just cut off my nose with a meat cleaver

There once was a man from Montrose,
Who always was blowing his nose.
There was soon an issue,
When he missed his tissue
And blew it all over his toes.

whitening our green landscape
I need a hanky
