Covid Crap

I hate the way we have to live today

in fact sometimes it simply makes me fume;

I wish this Covid crap would go away.

 

When even children can’t go out to play

and must resort to games in their own room;

I hate the way we have to live today.

 

When distancing requires that we must stay

at home, and only get to meet by Zoom.

I wish this Covid crap would go away.

 

When there are rules that we must all obey

to keep us safe until our lives resume,

I hate the way we have to live today.

 

When on-line shopping is the only way

to keep us stocked with all that we consume,

I wish this Covid crap would go away.

 

When vaccines are approved, but then they say

that we must wait our turn to dodge our doom.

I hate the way we have to live today.

I wish this Covid crap would go away.

Trevor,

This poem takes the words out of my mouth. A poem well articulated which must have a huge following.
Thank you for this

Keith
