Covid-19

COVID-19

China is the source, they say,
Origin from a lab one day.
Reached out quickly to infect,
Other nations to direct.
Now we see it worldwide
And may soon with ME abide!
Can I do much to protect
Of its virus to infect?
Read the CDC post every day,
Or just worry in dismay?
No, it’s all a scheme, they say
America to destroy some day.
Can I find a store somewhere
Offering what I need there?
Rolls of toilet paper, few,
Or some staples ought to do.
Nothing better now to do;
And hoard for a week or two!
