Ludicrous Limericks

Gingerbread house with the witch hiding away from children. Covid-19 fondant and cake art by Robbie Cheadle

"Stay away!" the witch did yell

I'm already feeling most unwell

Hand sanitizer didn't work

My keep-well spell had a quirk

Now I've no sense of smell

***

Hansel and Gretel could quickly tell

The witch wasn't feeling well

She kept herself hidden away

With a mask and hand spray

Covid-19 impervious to her spell
