Since Covid emerged upon the scene…from the moment the virus Gods begot it….
Deborah and I were thankful, relieved and extremely proud…never to have caught it!

We vaccinated and prayed to every God… to the sun, the stars the moon…
and as we watched friends and family succumb to it..we thought, perhaps, we were immune.

But the other day Deborah and I tested positive for Covid…it literally came out of thin air
and those dreams we had of immunity….it seems Covid did not care!

We tried to reason with Covid… “You don’t understand…we did everything right.” we said.
But there’s no reasoning with a virus and we spent the next three days in bed.

Because Covid did what Covid does…engulfing her diseased arms around us…
isolating us from one another…and from the world around us.

Somewhere in the fog of Covid…no matter how positively we tried to view it…
we began to wonder to ourselves…if we’d ever make it through it!

But as we fell in and out of sleep…never fully happy…or content….
we’d receive from our friends and family notes of love and encouragement.

These notes would end up on our phones…literally appearing out of thin air….
It made Covid a little more bearable…knowing people we love care.

There is no cure for a virus…we did what doctors and experts think best
we drank plenty of liquids…and we got a lot of rest…

It was anything but easy…there were times we didn’t know night from day…
but once it’s was done tearing our bodies apart…it eventually faded away.

And now that Covid’s fading and we’re thankful we survived
the two of us would like it to be known….
What helped us smile through the pain and suffering
were those messages on our phones…

It’s amazing how those simple acts of love…so innocent and pure
those little notes of encouragement…made this virus easier to endure.

So here’s my un-doctored prescription for surviving Covid
from experience…it’s the one I’m thinking of…
Drink plenty of liquids…get a lot of rest…
and surround yourself with love.
