The Greek Alphabet
In college, my sorority
Required us to learn
The alphabet in Greek,
Which we recited in our turn.
Since then, I’ve used it rarely –
In a crossword clue, perhaps –
As my brain recites those letters
That my memory unwraps.
Lately, though, with Covid’s Delta
And now Omicron’s new streak,
There’ve been many more occasions
To recall my long-lost Greek.
