Alex Trebek ©2020 Robert George
The April streets are empty
Stores are quiet and stark
There are no laughing kids,
With baseballs and mitts
Playing in the park
No vendors on the sidewalk
While I’m walking my dog
Just birds in budding trees,
As I talk to the breeze
In a lonely dialogue
But as I climb these dusty stairs
I don’t lose faith…I don’t despair
And it’s not cable news,
That gets me through
Or a government check
No, what gives me hope
And helps me cope
Is just watching Alex Trebek
It’s things I took for granted
That help me through my day
My old dog in my lap,
A cheddar cheese wrap
And a cup of Nescafe
For in a time of crisis
Men will question the sky
But I fight my doubts and fears,
Cos if Alex perseveres
Then, with God’s grace, so can I
Now, as I ease back in my chair
I won’t lose faith…I won’t despair
And it’s not cable news,
That gets me through
Or a government check
No, what gives me hope
And helps me cope
Is just watching Alex Trebek
Making do with less
Is the greatest thing that I possess
And when confusion is all that I see
It’s the simple things that comfort me
So, as I sit back in my chair
I won’t lose faith…I won’t despair
And it’s not cable news,
That gets me through
Or a government check
No, what gives me hope
And helps me cope
Is just watching Alex Trebek
Watching Alex Trebek…
