Pandemic Ponders
Mind-boggling, heart-wrenching, eye-opening -
Covid imposed mixed feelings about all -
Established comfort zone I’ve been living
Crashed down to pieces in a spiral fall.
Precautionary measures, now in place,
Took a hard toll on close-knit family,
Shattered warm welcome aura of home base -
Away, apart and distant it must be.
On many fronts life turned into a ghost -
Dining out, travel, or a theater night-
And a reminder of what matters most,
The value of our social ties that bind.
