Its uncertainty takes us into year three Must mask up, still not quite free A randomness science can’t comprehend Mandate not, don’t get the shot—the latest trend Surrendered to what’s taken longer The jabs make immune systems stronger To misleading rumors, we fall quarry Thousands more we’ll surely bury This spiky protein called Covid Nineteen Ages five and up, now get your vaccine A conspiratorial depopulation Manufactured in another nation The masses, it’s here for all races Children seen with shrouded faces Is this it, is Covid here to stay What do doctors tell us to say The virus evolves, it doesn’t go away What lessons can be learned Another life sickened and spurned The Pope, another epistle To what tune do we whistle What will they say all over the world Every man for himself, every boy and girl All grown up—they’ll be heard and seen As the — Generation Covid Nineteen!

A real lesson to be learned, everyone should be inoculated, it is only common sense. Navy bootcamp-15 shots in one day-and no complaints! Robert

Vaccines save lives. Polio struck America's preeminent ballerina in the 1950's, rendering her unable to ever dance again, all because she impatiently left the vaccination line, a great example people should know

Yea a whole generation will grow up, hopeful from out of the restraints of covid. Love the poetry, it tells one the way it is. A poem for the archives to be read over and over.

Hello I Am Anaya, Welcome to poetry soup. I feel that the virus has been around long enough. This is the 3rd year of the virus. I keep hoping something stronger to come along to rid of the virus. Enjoy your evening my friend.
