Corona is a virus
It also is a beer
The one produces happiness
The other world-wide fear!
The virus is confusing
With the latest shopping caper
It’s fever, cough, pneumonia, flu
And NOT the toilet paper!
Our SunBird life was lovely
Now we’re kicked out of the nest
My tanning was not finished
And more biking was my quest!
It has forced a relocation
Our environment has changed
From warm and sunny SunBird
To frozen “Home on the Range”
I guess I should be thankful
For this living isolation
The virus seems to rule us all
Including every nation
But things won’t change on Friday nights
That isolation is fixed
It’s beer and stogies all alone
That habit can’t be nixed!
I’ll pass the time contentedly
No shopping and no stores
Alas, I’ll take extensive time
And organize sock drawers!
