The plague is actively claiming precious lives
with its deadly droplets...sadly, not all survive
::::::::::::::::::::::::::
::::::::::::::::
we are holed up in our own homes
eager to feel back, airs of our known norms
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
::::::::::::::::
not easy to be without human interaction
though distantly, we fulfill human obligations
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
::::::::::::::::
quara­ntine, or isolation isn't only a solution
it's a path to meditation and self-evaluation
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
::::::::::::::::
refuge in solitude, is what we seek,
it's when we hear our inner voices speak.
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::        
::::::::::::::::
this is one
unprecedented lenten season
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
there's no end yet, for sickness, and death
in fear, we anticipate.....we hold our breath
