Ode to a sneeze

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share
1

I think that I shall never see,
A thing as lovely as a sneeze.

Not that I have seen it then,
For it is as invisible as the wind.

But the feeling is a pleasant bliss,
And as I sneezed twice I’m due a kiss.

I look forward to a glorious day,
When having sneezed four times, better things come my way.

Although my mustache is now a mess,
By hordes of strangers I will soon be blessed.

And blessed also by those I hold dear;
Those from a far and those from a’ near.

Although orgasmic my sneeze was not,
95 miles per hour and dripping with snot,

This does not change how I enjoyed,
As my sinuses became a near empty void.

Yes, I think that I shall never see,
A thing of beauty to rival the sneeze.

Beautiful!

Though I hate sneezing, because I’m a chronic sneezer, and I never sneeze only once. It’s aways 5 or more times, I think I hit 12 in a row once, and nearly fell over! I then end up congested and runny nosed for the next hour or so. Generally, the moment I step out of the shower, I sneeze. I have to keep it in mind in my morning schedule!

Though if you say that multiple sneezes means I get a kiss or good luck… someone owes me!

It’s English I think:

Once, a wish
Twice, a kiss
Three times, a letter
Four times, something better

My prose was inspired by a rash of sneezing this morning and this rhyme.

Best news I’ve heard all day :smiley:

Race you to the pepper mill.

So I’m at least due the lottery or something! Wishes and kisses and letters are nice, but I’m paid up for “something better” a hundred times over (and that’s just this week!)
