Notes About The Poem

Friday the thirteenth is only unlucky, if you believe it is. Coronavirus is an entirely different thing.

When Sunday Is the First Day

When Sunday is the First Day

When Sunday is the first 
Of a month that comes our way
Then Friday is the thirteenth
And that day is today

If you are superstitious
Then bad luck may abound
Wash your hands all that you can
Coronavirus is around

If you're not feeling lucky
Stay at home and hunker down
Don't travel to where others are
Don't take yourself to town

If you have trouble breathing
And you feel a little hot
Call your healthcare right away
To see what you have got

Being cautious does not hurt
Taking care is where it's at
Be alert, it is the thirteenth,
Don't cross the old black cat
