Edward Ibeh Poet Sijo

Notes About The Poem

Real People

Over two-hundred thousand Covid-19 victims now; 
easy to forget these are people, not "numbers of deaths," they are...
brothers, sisters, husbands, wives, parents, grandparents, et al.

Regina Mcintosh October 11, 2020 at 12:36 PM Painfully sad! Grief touches us all who know the numbers. God bless you Edward Ibeh October 11, 2020 at 1:57 PM I couldn't agree with you more, Regina. And sadly the numbers are increasing at an alarming rate. Blessings to you, my friend!

Darlene De Beaulieu October 11, 2020 at 10:41 AM Hello Edward,yes thes are people that have gotten the virus and died. This is sad. I wish a cure was found. Have a nice day my friend. Edward Ibeh October 11, 2020 at 10:54 AM It's sad indeed, Darlene:-( Let's hope a vaccine is coming in the near future, but it absolutely shouldn't be rushed. It must be very safe and effective!

Mark Koplin October 11, 2020 at 9:49 AM So very true Edward, I think everyone needs to be reminded of this a lot more. Edward Ibeh October 11, 2020 at 10:50 AM Sadly, a lot of people who continue to live in denial or think it's all a hoax won't listen! It's a pity.
