FRONT PAGE CREATIVE WRITING SCIENCE HOT TOPICS POLITICS HEALTH PANDEMIC	I used to think the shower cried The faucet gushed tears of sadness The toilet bowl had tantrums and The tap streamed of madness I used to think my radio had Four little musicians inside it And my lights held all day long Three tiny lightnin' bugs that lit it I used to think dogs could talk And communicate with them, I could And someday I would chat with a cat And believe me, I knew I would!
