It's Here

The world is haunted
a virus daunts its victims
undoing voyage

racing minds fearful
afraid to let our soul breathe
challenge of ages

Your haiku is certainly a sign of our times, Franci. I live in Dallas and we are under a shelter in place order right now, there is much uncertainty in life it seems. Stay safe! Hugs, John

I live in a suburb of Atlanta, which they just issued a 14 day "stay at home order", except for essential workers. There are difficult times, indeed. You stay safe, as well.
