Is It Cold or Is It Smell?

I have found out there’s something new

which i am now allergic to.

I am not certain what it is

causing my nose to drip like this.

It stops; but a short while later

i look in the refrigerator.

That is when i begin to sneeze.

Is it the cold wind on my knees?

Am i now allergic to cold

and realize i’m getting old?

But, if there is a warming trend

will most of my allergies end?

It may be something which i smell,

for there is food in there as well.
