Milord's mood was ebullient

His wife was vacationing away

The cat was at her mother's

And the mouse had room to play!

Suddenly house help vanished

Amid the shortage and strife

Milord, as he washed the dishes

Fondly remembered dear wife!

So Milord wanted her back

And Milord pulled some string

His minions willingly obliged

A driver was despatched to bring

Unfortunately at the border

Milord ran out of luck

Lockdown rules were enforced

And Milord's missus was stuck!

The life of the law is experience

Which is different from the rulebook

So while his wife enjoys her break

Milord toils as sweeper-cum-cook!
