CELIA'S POEMS

No 267       December 09

 

To hear the vaccines on it’s way.

We could really get excited.

To think things are looking up,

And we may be united.

 

But being over 80,

I may be due a sample.

Then you will know how I’ve gone on,

And use me as an example.

 

Well you’ve sampled all my poetry,

And my baking you are trying,

I might as well be a guinea pig,

For this vaccine they’re supplying

.

At last we’ve got some good news,

Christmas it may help along,

Without the usual festivities,

Everything seems wrong.

 

So when we get a new year,

And no poems come every day,

The vaccine will have worked for me,

And I’ll have flown away.

 

I don’t want you to get confused,

When I say I’ve flown away,

I don’t mean up to heaven,

It’s Marco, Hip Hip Hip Hooray.
