Changing Times

Have you ever thought...
I wish I had more time
and working 5 days a week
should be considered a crime?

Well, we all know the phrase
be careful what you wish for
as Coronavirus spreads 
and lockdown become law.

So what do we do
to make the most of our time...
Learn a musical instrument 
write a book or rhyme?

Learn a new language
or aim to get fit
but whatever you choose
make the most of it!

It’s a difficult time
but one thing we really must do
us give thanks for what we have 
and for those we live too!

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
