Tomorrow Please Be Yesterday
Idyllic time when I was born
The world was soft the world was warm
Gentle breezes combed our hair
Nature’s wonders were everywhere
The trees and seas and fields of grain
The soft caresses of the rain
Yes I had the measles, mumps and such
But truth be known they weren’t so much
Mothers love the soothing cure it was kind it was sure
Sugar diabetes we never knew (until adulthood I never knew of one case)
For most of my life I swear that’s true
ADHD no chemical tools our Fathers cured it or we were fools
Pandemic illness oh they exist
Created sadly by man’s assist
However none point out the truth
The worst virus we’ll ever see
Out of control population will kill us sure
Hear them knocking at our door
I hate to tell them there is no more…boy are they mad
