Beryl Edmonds Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

One Day Soon

One Day Soon
One day soon when we’re covid free
there'll be fun for both you and me
Able to hug someone again
as we did in those bygone days.

Oh the joy when freedom has come 
to kiss the cheek of anyone
With no distancing any more
or hiding behind a closed door.

Off the leash we'll happily be
meeting our friends and family 
Good company and jollity 
with those we love adorably.

Music again at live events
with campers sleeping in their tents
Sunbathers on a sandy beach
won't it be simply loverly.

Once more to weddings we may trot
to watch sweethearts tying the knot
Then dancing the whole night away
till the morrow greets the new day.

Hi-ho Hi-ho off we shall go
with our unconstrained hearts aglow 
Vaccinated, all in safety 
waving covid goodbye bravely.

Alexis Y. June 18, 2021 at 12:21 PM Hi Belle, I long for the day when we become Covid free as well. This dreadful disease has enough already. We took hugs and being around loved ones for granted ( myself included) until we weren’t allowed to. Well done- Alexis Beryl Edmonds June 18, 2021 at 1:06 PM Hi Alexis, I think everyone has had enough and are longing for the day they say we’re completely free to go about our days freely… Thank you! Belle

Rico Leffanta June 18, 2021 at 10:27 AM It appears the majority of Americans with both shots are those with a college education, so it will take awhile longer before your dream comes true ..... Beryl Edmonds June 18, 2021 at 11:05 AM If what you say is true Rico it’s most unfair, we’re all equal in God’s eyes, college education or not everyone should be given both shots by age order and nothing else. Thank you… Belle

Sotto Poet June 17, 2021 at 6:46 PM You have such lovely plans, Belle. You captured the post-pandemic authenticity in your poetry by painting a picture of pure pleasure. Great Job, blessings, and hugs Beryl Edmonds June 18, 2021 at 12:47 AM Lasaad, thank you so much, I truly appreciate that… Belle

L Milton Hankins June 17, 2021 at 6:12 PM Oh, I certainly agree that we will all be so happy when this pandemic and its strictures have gone away. Sing hi-de-ho! Beryl Edmonds June 17, 2021 at 6:26 PM Ah, Thanks a lot Milton - “hi-de-ho” ~ Belle
