Do not seek the armpit of distress

Bury your head

Lock the door

Draw the curtains

And pull up the drawbridge of despair

Do not fear the uncertain breeze

Of cough and of sneeze

 

Be the people you are destined to be

Meet the challenge

Light the light

Of love and of hope

Don’t run like frightened hungry rats

You are not one of a pack

You are part of a family

Of neighbour’s sisters and brothers

Who all walk the line

The unchosen path

 

Be the ones to say yes instead of no

Be the ones to stitch the wounds

Of another’s worry and anxiety

Hold the line

Be the phone call be the e mail what sup text

Be the smile amongst the tears

Be the calm and the rest

Share the love

Be your true self

Not someone else
