"Stay away!" the witch did yell
I'm already feeling most unwell
Hand sanitizer didn't work
My keep-well spell had a quirk
Now I've no sense of smell
***
Hansel and Gretel could quickly tell
The witch wasn't feeling well
She kept herself hidden away
With a mask and hand spray
Covid-19 impervious to her spell
