We love the collaborative concoctions on the games threads, but today we are asking for individual efforts on a rather topical theme. Looking forward to reading - if the haikus last week were anything to go by, we are in for some great ones.
A lady who lived on the Tyne Tried in vain to get shopping on line So she knitted some beans And made fish from old jeans And her dinner was chewy, but fine
An old boy from the wee town of Louth Was feeling quite down in the mouth Till he saw a wee lass With a nice shapely ass But lockdown had his hopes far south
There was an old woman called Pat Whose legs were incredibly fat She bought some new jeans That that soon split at the seams And said I'd have best bought a hat!!
There is an old Nan in south Devon Who thinks that she lives in heaven But now she's locked in She keeps drinking gin And doesn't know if it's midnight or seven.
The lockdown is dreary, you say, But the sun is quite nice here today, So I've trundled my barrow through paths straight and narrow, piled logs. I'll be at it til May.
