May It Rain

Monday third of May
The curfew must stay
Lockdown now at ten
Rhyme, I must now pen

Public transport over –full
As passengers push and pull
Police on the look-out with a frown
There goes in a hurry, a clown

A spot of rain sends us to the brim
Of disaster - Electricity on the trim
Water from taps, flowing stop
Only hope, from the farm a good crop

We go through the paces
In our shifting places
Hoping for better times
Wonderful tales and rhymes

I think that last paragraph applies worldwide, Melvin. Have a great day.
