No, not a cupboard full of pills
Logic flies to our defence
What we need is common sense!
Fear, unseen but all pervading,
Colours minds with dull grey shading
Field days for the gutter Press,
Social media and the rest ...
So with schools and factories shut
The Economy gets a leaner cut
While we enjoy much cleaner air
And time to work out why we're here!
Our sense of humour has full rein
As being serious is a strain
Stress levels neatly cut in half
By zany jokes that make us laugh.
'Pandemic' is the buzz word now
How much Angst will nerves allow?
Atlantic flights to be curtailed;
Has the human race derailed?
