Merry Christmas 2024
Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the air,
Not a pollen grain stirred—thank goodness—out there.
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
While Melbourne’s warm breeze carried scents everywhere.
.
The summer sun sparkled on gardens in bloom,
But for hay fever sufferers, that spelled some gloom.
“Don’t fret!” said the app, with its daily forecast,
“Your sneeze-free adventure can surely outlast.”
.
With antihistamines ready and sprays at their side,
The allergy warriors could enjoy the yuletide.
From family picnics to gifts ‘round the tree,
With the help of our trusted almanac they plan the spree!
.
As Santa soared over with reindeer in tow,
Even he checked the forecast before saying “Ho, ho!”
With a mask in his pack and his eyes all aglow,
He avoided the grass where the pollen could grow.
.
So, this Christmas season, let’s spread lots of cheer,
Grateful for health, for loved ones near.
And as 2025 awaits just around the bend,
Melbourne Pollen will be your year-long friend.
.
Merry Christmas to all, and to all a goodnight,
May your holiday sparkle with joy and delight!
