It's Time For Spring

Yes, it's time for spring.
Everything’s in bloom.
I should be elated;
Instead, I’m filled with gloom.

Trees and shrubs in bud,
Pollen is in the air.
It covers everything!
Escape is found nowhere!

Flowers bursting forth;
Their scent is on the breeze.
My head is quite stuffed up;
All I can do is wheeze.

I sit here sneezing;
My eyes are itching, too.
I’m coughing and sniffling,
Ah-choo, ah-choo, ah-choo!

Though I see beauty,
I simply want to hide,
For I cannot enjoy
The lovely countryside.

I’ll refill my pills
So I will not be sick
For springtime’s in the air
And, I’ll need relief quick!
