Fallen On Hard Times

Meghan Markle's 
  lost her sparkle
While Prince Harry
  seems more wary

Old Prince Charles'
  star has faded
And Princess Anne
  looks quite jaded

The Royal Family
  no more a fascination
Corona virus ~
  our new pre-occupation

I should have such ‘hard times’! Neat and perceptive verses, Gershon.

Ha, ha! Love your comment, Geoffrey. From what I've read, Prince H. and Princess Meghan have just purchased an oceanside home for $9.8 million, with 9 bedrooms and 20 bathrooms. Sounds like they're prepared for incontinence, eh?! lol. Thanks, my friend. :) Gershon

Nice humour with a dose of truth. The virus has indeed gone viral as they say. Over here it's media saturation. One needs to tune out and turn off to preserve sanity. Stay safe.
