Menacingly Waiting

It’s all around It’s everywhere And when you least expect t’will linger and await Invisible in the air No indication No warning Your innocent breaths You are unaware Donning your mask Do not wait to be asked Safely distancing at all times For this dreaded virus We're unable to see Menacingly waiting For the likes of you Menacingly waiting For he likes of me And in the meantime After all cautions taken Find pleasure in all Mother Nature doth bring ~ her morning sunrise ~ her calming sea ~ her full moon mesmerising Her many gifts for you for me oh such joy they are bringing when you hear your is heart singing For this virus can’t destroy them Even though it’s causing mayhem Take care of this miracle crafted As you stroll through her woods and her fields Created for us by a force up above Encompassing us with his tenderest love Written 26th August 2021 after someone I love tested positive...

Some people have a "third" eye, but many more have a blind eye, and see only what they want to see . . . .

I know people who refuse to take the vaccine and wear protective masks. Then they complain. What a pity. Hugs.

Thank you Victor, it becomes rather scary when so close to home. Although she has had the vaccines, but is still feeling rather poorly, so praying she will be okay. Keep well my friend. With kindest thoughts Ann xx
