Pollen Season

I see the flowers watching me

In the corner of my eye

And I know they turn to follow me

As I warily pass them by

They seem to pop up everywhere

I’m in fear for my life

There’s a crocus in my garden

I suspect it has a knife

The tulips mug pedestrians

While the daisies hold them down

The orchids throng their sordid beds

In parks of ill renown

Daffodils are widely known

To traffic drugs for money

The roses mock the handicapped

And think that AIDS is funny

Forget-me-nots are racist

They’re a monochrome bouquet

You should never trust a marigold

For they quickly go astray

Foxglove can be terminal

And belladonna too

So I’m going to watch the summertime

Through a sheet of glass or two

Lol. Fun one!!
I guess we need to enjoy everything with a protective shield nowadays.

I'm allergic to allergy medicine too which is both annoying and deeply ironic xx

Ha! That's funny, sort of. Ok, maybe not. I guess you were never the guy running up to a girl with flowers so it's a good thing you're a poet...
