Dreams of Yesteryear

vaguely remembered the span when life was normal cherished memories of last year of freedom we took for granted~ a lifetime now behind us shipwrecked in this pandemic sea time at an unbearable standstill having us float idle in angst helpless as driftwood whilst many of us drown in our bygone memories Published in my 24-page photo/anthology ~COVID 2020~ 2020 AP: Honorable Mention 2020 Posted on April 11, 2020

'shipwrecked in this pandemic sea' wow, your words say it all Line, and even though I try, I am finding it hard to see a light at the end of the tunnel, but when it does come it will make me cherish each and every moment. Wishing you both peace and love for when our freedom returns...
