As the impact of the lockdown
Gradually unfurled
There was an extraordinary meeting
In the Bar Room’s insect world
Bugs, termites, cockroaches
Silverfish & ants were invited
As the proceedings commenced
Some rodents too were sighted
“Friends, have you fathomed the reason
For this meeting Extraordinary?
‘Tis because our benefactor lawyers
Have gone missing from our Library …
“We, who fed off their crumbs and spoils
In bygone days that were so good
Should now investigate their belongings
So that their disappearance is understood …
The thin rat then suggested
That they should start with the fat books
Where they all played hide-n-seek
Amidst the varied corners and nooks
As the cats had left with the lawyers
There was no need to keep a watch
And they knew behind which tome
Was hidden half a bottle of Scotch …
So there was this grand celebration
You may say it was a free-for-all
The law books were all shredded
But the creepy-crawlies had a ball …
