Invisible Foe

In world war 1 and 2 We knew what what we were up against But this world war 3 is invisible Which adds to the angst We are told to stay indoors stay indoors all day But when you have no garden Lying down in parks Doesn't give you pardon One hour of exercise only 2mtr apart dont touch!! no,no For fear of getting or passing on this invisible foe We should not complain We are relatively safe But the boys and girls in blue are working at the face Not forgetting the elves working to give us food upon the supermarket shelves And the silent little workers making PPE Just to protect the likes of you and me They are giving their lives not against guns, oh no But against this invisible foe Please God ?? let us get through this By the only way we know Stay at home to wage this war Against this invisible virus.

You have written a true tale of the woe of the world....Let's hope it soon comes to pass, that we no longer will be in a lockdown that impedes our way of life. God Bless, Paulette

Fine write Jacqee, thankfully now approaching spring things may be improving. This has good imagery and insightful thought too. Good to meet a fellow Brit, I'm North of the border. Take care, Gordon
