Apartment Life Now

In apartment life you must decide On the places where virus germs hide Like the lobby or worse Where we have to traverse When an upper floor’s where we reside. Elevators quite likely can link Nasty droplets to us, I would think And the laundry room’s prime For a germ-transfer crime So I’m washing my clothes in the sink! written 3/27/20 entered in Quarantine contest by Julie Leigh Rodeheaver

Be thankful Ilene that there is not one bathroom per floor! love your gift of bringing out tough times with humor. Thanks for the stop by. BTW, New England springs as often as described in my poem – no exaggeration! / M

One can hope the daily rush of polluted air and objects will build up immunity? Interesting that no soap manufacturers are rushing out ads claiming their product kills the virus! Keep them coming, Ilene! Aloha! Rico
