Move Over, Delta!

Move over, Delta virus;

There's a brand new bug in town.

It goes by the name of Omicron

And hopes that it won't let us down.

 

It loves to travel and it moves fast.

From across the seas it traveled here

To liven up our holidays

And wish us all a fun New Year.

 

It, like you, likes gatherings,

And it, like you, feels neglected

When it introduces itself

To people who are well protected.

 

No offense, but we would have

Done quite well without you both--

You with your surreptitious

Ways and your rapid growth.

 

So here we are--once again--

Listening to an ongoing medley

Of songs played by an uninvited

Guest whose visits could be deadly.
