On Covid
People,
people, people
The covid
virus can stifle
So chin up,
tone down and staple
The first
vaccine shot’s a monster
It can
cause fever and ulcer
To oldies
its much kinder
With a
minor hiccup or flounder
The second
injection is a boon
For all who
are ready to swoon
In the arms
of animal spirits
Lets party
, travel and mix again soon!
On Mind
Mind is one
thing I never could understand
It leaves
me puzzled, oftentimes blank!
When I
should be in the present
Working
hard on my current assignment
It scurries
into the corridors of the past
To ferret
out nuggets of memories lost
Leaves me
in a reverie from which I drag myself out reluctantly
To confront
my supervisor staring at me accusingly
Often it
leaps to the future
Laying out
dreams of wealth and riches enticingly
Wretched
creature it is!
Just when I
am assured its not all a dream,
It prods me
awake with nudge and a wink!
On water
What a
wonderful thing is water
One drop
has the same formula as a quarter
Its only htwoO
but it packs a punch
As if it
were uranium
When it
does not rain, sleet or snow
We wonder
where did it all go
When there
is a downpour
The frogs
croak and snakes go slow
It’s a wonderful
feeling
When we are
a bathing
The soapy
suds and scented soaps
Under the
shower or in the tub
Cleansed of
all the muck
That’s what
water does for us
What would we
do without you?
