Nursery Rhyme For Our Time

Christmas is a-coming and

the gas bill’s growing fat, Please save your pennies

for a thermostat. If you can’t afford the heat

on, a hat and coat must do. With Universal Credit cut — it’s God help you.

Oh, how can life be so unfair? There’s no CO2 left to spare. Frozen food we will lose And it’s goodbye to booze, But we’re told there’s too much in the air! Mike Simms, Ottery St Mary, Devon.
