Alas! He has been ill for several weeks
with fitful sleep disturbed by many coughs;
his fingernails from coughing scratched his cheeks
no peerage granted him, unlike those toffs.
Perhaps he picked up Covid once again
delivering their presents to the kids
for all his life, his lungs have been his bane
carbon monoxide poisoned them, it dids.
To Boots go I, to purchase covid test
Nine pounds for five on this, the final day
and as the year closes, take our best
For 'twenty-five; blwyddyn newydd dda, we say.
I could not find the tests I bought before
until the newest box I went to store.
