Wee Willie Winkie
runs through the town
making sure the town folk
are all locked down.
Rapping on the windows
tapping on the doors
telling all the town folk
they’re better off at home.
Wee Willie Winkie
goes out once a day
keeps socially distant
well out people’s way.
Wee Willie Winkie
didn’t used to run
but now it’s in the guidance
doesn’t everyone?
Willie sees the townsfolk
going two by two.
He tuts and frowns
and sucks his gums
and frets about the rules.
Some folks break them
get the rules wrong
but Wee Willie Winkie
never thinks he’s one.
