Notes About The Poem

Protect yourself as much as possible.

Covid-19

The whole world is being affected by Coronavirus (COVID-19). I hope this poem will, in some way, help you cope. We will get through this. It may be tough, but we, working together, will make it happen.

COVID-19

COVID-19 could be coming for you
Here are precautions, that you should do
Wash your hands often, that is the first clue
Stay away from the crowds, who may have it too

If you have to go out, stay some distance away
Stay at arm's length, keep other's at bay
Don't shake any hands, COVID transmits that way
Keep tabs on yourself, to see if you're okay

If you have shallow breathing, if you're temperature's high
If concentration is lacking,  if a hacking coughing nigh
If you have often headaches, making you moan and sigh
Then contact your doctor, to find out just why

Do not fall to panic, when more cases you see
Take the precautions, to stay COVID free
If you still catch it, that's the way that it will be
I'm praying you don't, nor my wife and me.

God bless and keep us
