Emile Pinet Poet Verse

Notes About The Poem

             

Chaff In the Wind

life lost
hope lost
loved ones die, bravery gets applauded
cities shut down, the economy collapsed
no food
no work
no cash


stay home
wear mask
an effective vaccine, the miracle drug 
human contact, grandparents get a kiss
love smiles
hold hands
tender hugs


new year
new hope
yesterday's legacy, chaff in the wind
forgotten miseries; stories lost to time
a chance
a prayer
a dream
