Oh Corona

It was two-thousand and twenty, When all the streets were empty.
An unwanted entry, threw the world into a frenzy.
It was because of this virus, That was ever so famous.
It made people mindless, And also very restless.
The world was in lockdown, It made many people frown.
Panic buying was common in town, Toilet paper made shops shut down.
All schools were shut, And Home learning was a must.
All kids had to adjust, This virus was not to trust.
All parents were stuck, And running out of luck.
Everyone was in a bit of a muck, As they were dumbstruck.
Oh, irritating corona, You left a sour aroma.
You are worse than eczema, So vanish dear corona!
