Our World Has Changed

Oh, how our world has changed! Our days are rearranged- this quarantine exchanged for freedom- so deranged. How long- we do not know; the peak will come to show a curve- and then plateau- at that, our hope may grow. Oh, beautiful, spring days- we're missing your bright blaze; forsythia's gold sprays and daffodil displays! Our children rule us now- to leave home, disallow. They bring sundries and chow- six feet apart allow. If this could be a dream a nightmare's ghoulish scheme, we'd sure wake up agleam- with joy, we'd dance and scream. But, no- this nightmare's true; together, we'll pull through. But- many perished too! We, quarantined, make do. April 6, 2020 Premiere Contest: One On The Chin Sponsor: Kai Michael Neumann
