["Fu Bao in quarantine ", In China, born in 2020,
just came from lease at South Korea]
Liar, liar;
written for National "Tell a Lie Day"
I never tell a lie
Lies are wrong, crooks, the like
Although they can be told
Have to be very bold
Tell when they mean no harm
Not like you've sold the farm
Meant to help all for you
Natural thing to do
I'm sorry taken wrong
Not like you've bought a thong

I was in quarantine on a Princes ship for six days and then four more at an old Holiday Inn Express motel in Portsmouth, England U.K. Mrs. Jim was in quarantine nine days on the ship and one in the motel. I caught mine from her, she probably the when in an elevator. Not enjoyable even though we had a balcony cabin onboard.

Liars come with am endless supply of excuses when caught out, don't they?!
ReplyDeleteYou are right.... lies should not be told, but what once was truth may be lies the next day.
