Illness

Illness is not something to desire around us
Living without diseases, it is a prayer of everyone. 
Life has no guarantee as many poets gone to rest. 
Now, Covid is the top illness that killed many people  
Expecting to meet with some poets survivors of Covid, 
So we can hug and take some black coffee at any
Seafront  restaurants  in the World.

Illness is definitely not something to desire Alfonso. I’ve had plenty of it over the last year and a half, my husband and myself. We both had a spell in hospital with Covid, though several months apart, that’s besides my husband recovering from sepsis, fortunately. Congratulations on your success in Constance’s contest… Belle
