Alexs Allergy

　　Alex had an allergy

　　that no one could explain.

　　It made him wheeze and cough and sneeze

　　and moan and groan in pain.

　　A single slight exposure,

　　and he'd start to squawk and squeal.

　　A second time ensured

　　that he'd be barking like a seal.

　　He'd salivate and slobber

　　as his nose began to twitch.

　　He'd squirm and say his body felt

　　like one gigantic itch.

　　At last they found the cause,

　　which Alex thought was pretty cool.

　　So now he stays at home;

　　he is allergic to his school.
