Cold in a pandemic!

OH! What a bad cold it has been,
A like it of which I had never seen!
Came with a mild fever as well,
Raising fears of COVID that shot through my headl!

It struck me once in April mid,
In self-isolation, I just hid!
It appeared again on the 5th of May,
What just happened? I couldn't say!

The doctor's office wouldn't recommend a test,
Conducted only at public health's behest!
Watch your symptoms I was told,
For difficulties in breathing take hold!
Keep treating the symptoms as much as you can,
Take adequate rest - A key to get back!!

But how did I ever catch it again?
A question to which the answer became -
"There's a first time to everything. 
That was April. It's now May!"

OH, it will be a good
Spring shortly,
I also have a pollen allergy!
Hoping that this will be the last,
I already had enough -
Spare me a thought!
"Well...whatever" goes my mind,
I wrote this down during a pandemic time!
