Allergies

Eye drops for roses and whiskers on kittens,

Cortisone ointment for warm woolen mittens,

Ragweed and hayseed is what August brings.

These are my itchiest, sneeziest things.

 

When the bug bites, when the bee stings

I take Benedryl.

 

I’m simply allergic to so many things

I swallow a couple of pills!
