TIDE A tribute to Mankind’s endurance against horrendous adversity Written By: Derek S Ward      [email protected]         Did it come from space, or was it already here? Just hiding within a cloak so unseen Now the human race has something to fear That will provoke us with a spirit unclean At the slightest touch, it will invade its host No questions, no feelings , no parole Then as tight as a clutch, this invisible ghost Will creep through the very soul A coming has arisen to defeat us all To destroy and not just to fracture It has no prison, no warnings, no call Not even a desire to capture Yet this threat stirred reaction throughout mankind We stand to challenge its fight And this Human faction with science combined Will bring us our day, our light This evil torment from far or near As watched this earth as it cried Yet we shall not relent, as it all is so clear We will live, not just ebb like the tide Stay Safe

I have been in hospital with Covid. I was extremely ill, yet eventually after testing negative I was discharged. However, two weeks later I was again admitted to hospital with a serious chest infection and sent sometime there before being discharged. Covid I9 is our invisible enemy. It is so dangerous and relentless and as proven to undermine our very existence.
