Chapter (7) HAY FEVER

HAY FEVER.

 

The flowers in the garden,

swayed gently in the breeze.

And they made lots of pollen

Which always made me sneeze.

 

The doctor gave me tablets,

He said “Take one every day,

they will stop you sneezing,

and your runny nose will go away.”

 

The small white pills were working

For a while, but then the trees,

produced their flowers and pollen,

and again it made me sneeze.

 

I told the doc about my nose.

my itching eyes and wheezing.

He said “Umm I wonder if these yellow ones”

Will help to stop you sneezing.

 

Each week he gave me pills,

Of different colours and size,

But nothing stopped the sneezing,

Or my itching eyes.

 

And then it stopped. The doc said

“It’s been difficult you know,

to find the pill to help you.”

I said “I thought it was the snow.”

I have a strange view of the world.

[Najam Us Saher]

Being strange is nice sometimes. ☺

Cute. Apparently Mother Nature has a better handle on the situation than the docs!

Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for reading.

Ahaha!! Hilarious! The ending cracked me up!! Literally laughing so hard right now. What a terrible thing hay fever is I feel sorry for this poor character. I loved the poem though. The story was funny and the rhyming and rhythm were perfect. Fantastic! Thanks for sharing. :)

I'm so pleased you enjoyed it. The poor sufferer used to be me. We had a village doctor who carried his pills and stuff in a wicker basket. I was convinced he used to be a Vet.

[Stan Lee]

That would explain the various sizes and colors of the pills I guess! haha :D

[MAD ENGLISHMAN]

You have NO idea. Once I had a shoulder pain and he gave me some red pills. A week later it was just the same. I told him. he replied. I wonder what those red pills are for then.

I liked this poem, what a stupid doctor though haha, as if he couldn't just work out that it was hay fever.
The rhyme scheme was great, and I loved the storyline.
Keep on writing :)

[MAD ENGLISHMAN]

Glad you liked it. Thanks for reading.

Your welcome

[wordman]

so now we know instead of all the pills we just wait for snow

[MAD ENGLISHMAN]

Yup and it's free.

It's a most difficult thing to handle. Fortunately, I don't suffer from any allergies, but I know a lot of people that do. I certainly hope relief comes your way soon!

...and here's a "god bless you", just for further reference! ; )

[MAD ENGLISHMAN]

Thank you very much. Must say this year has been very mild so far. I think all the rain helped to keep the pollen down.

I enjoyed reading it:D.
Thanks for sharing :)!

[MAD ENGLISHMAN]

Thank you.

hehe That was very cute piece of work. Many people are allergic to pollens and Its very difficult to handle this thing. And only "The snow" will work.
I hope it gets better for you darling :) Have a good day :)

Thank you for reading and this wonderful comment. I'm a sufferer but the pills do help actually. I LOVE the first snows. It means I'm FREE.

[stars are far]

I think that pills do help and I hope you will feel btter. And yeah Snow, I love white, its peace and freedom. But at my place where i live we dont see snow, it doesnt snow . And i really hope that one day i will go to a place where it snows, and I hope that place will be the UK, because there it snows, and it has the biggest librbary in the world which i dream to visit.
LOL. I talk too much. Sry for that.
:) Have a good day
