Covid 19'll Get You - David Allen

COVID 19’ll GET YOU
By David Allen

In today's Premier Poet's Corner, we feature David Allen with an amusing take on the current quarantining. It's good to use a sense of humor to handle these stressful times!
Picture

(With apologies to James Whitcomb Riley)
​

Little David Allen’s in his house to stay
An’ washes the pots and plates up, meditating on days
Of fear and quarantinin’, meanin’ don’t go out for a drink
“Keep a social distance,” is the order, makin’ one think
If the loneliness is worth it, if you can’t get or give a hug
AIl because we’ve been invaded by a new pandemic bug
Aw, livin’ in this new age just makes me want to shout
Covid 19’ll get you
     If you
          Don’t
               Watch
                    Out!
