Dry Year

The Medical Officer

Has made some new rules

Telling us

How to handle our booze


It seems to me

The solution is clear

We should all aim

To have a dry year


But do not muddle

Dry with a drought

We still need

To enjoy life and getout


If the majority of days

In a month are dry

We can partake on theothers

With a virtuous sigh


Repeat this for a total

Of seven or more

The Medical Officer

Should let our avictorious roar


Seven from twelve

An achievable aim

That will installhabits

From which we will gain
