CORONA LIMERICK - 2

As I sit in balcony chair for sun,
I'm amused to behold the skipping fun
Of Pauls' son on the front roof,
Jumping the rope in full oomph,
His flabs sagging with weight of  bulky ton.

With the humpty-dumpty at the 'gym',
His balloony mom comes and fans him,
As his look alike dad
Joins, a jump rope in his hand,
And both slug like Dhoni with full vim...

The two sumos wobble up full each morn
Now five weeks into Corona lock-down;
With the hissing of dragons,
With heaving of the gluttons,
The house quakes with clumps of the dual godown.
