Christmas Party

The final guest
arrived by boat.
 
‘The waters
are still rising’
he told us,
as he paddled into the hall
 
‘And the rain,’ he gushed,
‘Oh you should see the rain’
 
while in overcrowded rooms
wine and conversation flowed.
 
‘Shouldn’t we be social
distancing?’
said a voice.
 
‘Social distancing!
We shouldn’t even be here,’
said another.
 
‘Don’t worry,’
said a third,
‘this is just a dream
 
of what once was
and will be again.’


Merry Christmas Everybody
