I used to hold you in my arms, now Covid says No I used to kiss you on the lips, this I miss I used to hold my grandchild she longs my parish arms I used to shake and high five touchings of hands salutation Covid doesn't give just takes breaths away I used to fellowship with my fellow worshipers Covid tell me now no more gathering Tells me now how to follow my fellow humans Government health community says now says must space ourselves Covid doesn't give just takes breaths away Standing/walking within 6 feet increments You wanna be 6 feet apart standing, rather than 6 feet under If I sneeze you use to say bless you I guess Covid already kissed us, now you spit out on us Covid doesn't give just takes breaths away I used to go to sports games band concerts I used to attend weddings and funerals Now it's less important I don't want to dance with Covid She's a taker away of my breath Covid doesn't give just takes breaths away Then after dead what's next we'll touch, embrace the arms of Jesus You see Covid my breath you can't have it my breath comes from God 6/6/20 ©2020
