VERSATILE VERSE 3

A bit of thought before we act.
Speak always with a bit of tact

It doesn't need a clever brain or a degree
Just give and take from you and me

A bit of thought before we act.

Broken hearts can indeed be mended
Neglected feelings can be be tended

It doesn’t need a clever brain or a degree

Life's too short to carry a grudge
It only leaves emotional sludge

Broken hearts can indeed be mended

And revel in being with family and friends
Even our enemies, let's make amends.

Life's too short to carry a grudge

To go out to supper with friends as I choose
And hug those I love and really let loose

And revel in being with family and friends

Bring on the vaccine and let us go free
To bring back the children to sit on my knee

To go out to supper with friends as I choose

Oh please, let's have some sun tomorrow
and an end to the virus and no more sorrow

Bring on the vaccine and let us go free

I love all the colours - shades of yellow, orange and red
But can't see much, spent all day in bed.

Oh please, let's have some sun tomorrow

Looks like Nature has caught the Virus as well
But at this time of the year it's so hard to tell

I love all the colours - shades of yellow, orange and red

The streets are so quiet and most venues are closed
Feel like a Chinese, just fed up of toast.

Looks like Nature has caught the Virus as well

They sit in their labs in gleaming white coats
making decisions which keep us all off the roads

The streets are so quiet and most venues are closed

They’ll understand that we had no choice
The scientists ruled, they are clever boys

They sit in their labs in gleaming white coats

I hope little ‘uns won’t forget who we are
Not as if we chose to disappear

They’ll understand that we had no choice

The day will be coming when we can make plans
It's going to be great for all us grans.

I hope little 'uns wont' forget who we are

I'm hoping that fun with them can begin soon
Imagine the cuddles when all in one room

The day will be coming when we can make plans

Let's turn our minds to something we treasure
It's time with the grandkids I miss beyond measure

I'm hoping that fun with them can begin again soon

I bet they will be glad when they can wear less protective gear
If we all obey the rules that day could be near

Let's turn our minds to something we treasure

But doctors and nurses first I hope
They all need help just to be able to cope

I bet they will be glad when they can wear less protective gear

To look after their most vulnerable patients
So they'll probably start with the ancients,

But doctors and nurses first I hope

I’ll be first in line when the vaccine arrives
I know my GPs surgery always strives

To look after their most vulnerable patients

Its the only way out of this terrible state
The virus is spreading at an alarming rate.

I'll be first in line when the vaccine arrives

Much better to look the other way
because making a fuss just won't pay

It's the only way out of this terrible state

Some people cannot her the sight of a needle of course
Then they hope that it won't be applied with force

Much better to look the other way

( I thought so )

In administering vaccine injections
There can be few who would make objections

Some people cannot bear the sight of a needle of course
