COVID 19

We are living in an unpredictable time, a time of uncertainty and for many of us, a time of fear and worry. However, we are all in this together, we stand as one. Being there for one another is so important at this time. This may be by phone, video, watching You Tube, television or in each other’s thoughts. We are all part of humanity and all of humanity is there for you…
I would like to share with you my poem about COVID 19…
​
Unseen you creep through this land
Bringing fear and pain unbounded
You flow through night and day touching us with fingers of death
Drawing the breath of life from our bodies and paralysing our minds with terror
You inflict pain and sorrow as you burrow amongst us, unseen, unheard, stealthily seeping into our veins and filling our cells with your poison
Our armies cannot protect us, our fight is a personal one, just you and I, who shall be the victor?
Our weak and vulnerable are easy pray for you
But you are not content in collecting them in your arms…no, you dig deeper and pursue anyone who stands in your way
But we will all stand together against you…the old, the young, all of mankind…we will force you to retreat, to flee, to return to the dark recesses of your existence
We will emerge stronger, wiser and kinder…we will banish you from our lives and begin to live a new life, a better life, a kinder life without you
For we are there for each other with arms outstretched in love and for you, COVID 19, you shall never be the victor…
