November Nitty-Gritty

When times are tough, the tough get going

Is this true? No way of knowing

But at this juncture thoughts are mixed

With Corona once more up to tricks!

 

It’s the uncertainty that hurts;

Our freedoms fluctuate in spurts

Still mandatory to wear a mask;

For some, this seems too much to ask!

 

The Corona ship needs all aboard

Restrictions must not be ignored

So, socialising is curtailed;

Red measures: take tests and be trailed?

 

Those who yearn for Christmas travel

Find their well-laid plans unravel

It’s hard to know how to proceed

And what news we should believe…

 

The vast array of festive fare

Already dazzles shoppers here

Christmas gifts needs must be found

Tourists though - thin on the ground…
