Lockdown

My take on this vile virus. Hopefully it will soon be gone. 

Stay at home 

behind your door,

only go out

for an odd chore.

Find things to do

paint that wall,

go in the garden

kick a football. 

Phone a friend 

have a chat,

walk the dog

stroke a cat.

Pen a novel

short or long,

create a poem

write that song.

Do some exercise

run on the spot,

get a sweat on

flushed and hot.

This nasty virus

deadly and unseen,

it is so ruthless

cruel and mean.

So when will it end

stop and cease ,

and instead of death

give us some peace ?
