The Greek Alphabet

In college, my sorority

Required us to learn

The alphabet in Greek,

Which we recited in our turn.

 

Since then, I’ve used it rarely –

In a crossword clue, perhaps –

As my brain recites those letters

That my memory unwraps.

 

Lately, though, with Covid’s Delta

And now Omicron’s new streak,

There’ve been many more occasions

To recall my long-lost Greek.
