My Mask

Yes, I wear a mask

                                  to shield from Covid 19.

                                      My glasses fog up.

I have a mask and a face shield; I go no where so far have not needed any of it. I was thinking this was about another mask when I saw the title. This is timely.

I could see how you might have been misled by the title. Masks are powerful symbols. That's why they are associated with theater. I might have taken the poem in a very different direction. Take care!

Hello Thomas Wells yes my eyes burn and my glasses steam up. Does your eyes burn? Does your glasses steam up? Mine does. I use eye drops for the redness and dry eye to relieve the sting. Enjoy your evening my friend.

Yes, it is. If I leave my glasses on, I can't see. If take my glasses off, I can't read. LOL! Stay safe and well during this pandemic and may you feel the inward light of God in all your affairs. xxoo
