Fuel poverty is going to hit many of us, 

Many pensioners will have to keep warm on the bus.

Rising bills will undoubtedly affect us old,

Earlier deaths for us elderly more susceptable to the cold.

 

Rising energy bills are expected to make us frown,

How can we save money and bring our bills down ?

Turning  the thermostat down one degree or two will become the norm,

Reduce the time the dishwasher and washing machine have to perform.

 

Switch off the lights when leaving a room.

Avoiding big bills and depressive gloom.

Only one bath or shower a week,will lead to a smell,

But will bring down the cost of our bills  from hell.

 

Sadness to many rising gas prices brings,

Leaving us less to spend on other things.

Many of us will have to choose between eating and heating,

As rising prices give our finances a beating !!!
