Breathing In The Summer Poem by David Boyce

Breathing in the summer

When we get into the summer,
And the weather goes up by a few degrees,
Many people who suffer with their chests,
May find it difficult and start to wheeze.

It's hard to explain to others,
Some just don't understand,
Because you may become breathless,
And you need your steroid inhales at hand.

You may physically look healthy,
And not classed as disabled yet,
But it can hit you at any times,
With many funny looks you will get.

If you see a person panicking,
Having trouble to breath,
Talk calmly to them to take deep breaths,
And make sure they are well before you leave.
