I woke up this AM early, unable to breathe through my nose. When I sat up, it turned on the faucet of mucus. This, in turn, came out of my head.
I like sunshine but I hate spring
My tonsils itch, and my eyes frickin’ sting
can’t sleep at night, cuz my nose does drip
Don’t say “flowers are so pretty!”
I don’t give a rip.
Give me late summer and swimming holes
Give me autumn with jack O’lanterns and spooky souls
Give me Winter white and cold.
No pollen to sniff
No sneezes to unfold
I hate spring
The flowers of the season
There is no other reason
but to blow out pollen with my sneezin’.
Eyes swell shut
Sinuses plug
Mucus everyday
the word is “Ugh!”
So I don’t do spring
I always feel forlorn.
Give me something
So I don’t snore like pants being torn.
Just don’t let me wake up,
Wake up until it’s September morn.
