Ninety Three

Her friend is in the room next door Can't see her they won't allow it anymore At ninety three she's considered so wise Now tears are streaming from her eyes The nursing home she lives follows guidelines Doesn't want the risk of any massive fines Keeping everyone safely two metres apart Will break for sure a ninety three year old heart Her family visit her maybe twice a week Masks on their faces its difficult to speak What will happen if I reach ninety three Will anything be left for me to hear and see

A work that truly reveals the desperate times we find ourselves in right now. I hope you also write a companion piece that breathes of new aspiration, new inspiration for the better times that are sure to come. Well written piece my friend and fellow poet.
