Ode to the Pollen

Oh sweet smelling pollen, why do you make me sneeze?
And making my throat sore, just as you please.

I love the sunshiney weather, as it makes me want to move.
But, what happens this weekend when I don't have my normal groove?

I am walking for a cure you see, so I cannot be sick.
And, when I hit that finish line, I don't want to miss a lick.

I guess I will carry tissues, and stuff them in my bra.
Because what's more sexy than having a nose that doesn't know how to stop?

Running that is, and I guess I won't be doing that.
For fear that the pollen will rise up and make me fall flat.

I sure hope you listen, and hear what I'm saying.
Cause I'm doing this race, and I will keep praying.

Praying for those who have fought this battle and lost.
And, for those that have survived, whatever the cost.

So, dear pollen, whether you are a friend or a foe.
Please just cool it off a little bit, so off to that race I can go!!

  1. Umm...if you stuff tissues in your bra they may get sweaty...that may not be a great idea....I hope you feel better...maybe we can just get you a facemask from the hospital...there will be like a million people and hey, that way you will stand out in the pictures...

  2. Yeah, that's a great idea, then I won't be able to breath, and I'll be sweaty! No thanks! I'll just do the ole bra trick, and hope they aren't all gross when I go to pull them out.
