there is no going back the innocence is gone life as we knew it will never be the same scarred from fear and loss of loved ones shaken to our core that we are not invincible inhabitants of the world survive a global attack behind closed doors we face our conundrum we’ve had the time to take a long hard look revisit existentialist values and priorities watch in awe how our neighbors react we’ve redrawn boundaries in the sand i have the outlook of an aging babyboomer never more grateful that we got to enjoy our freedom in the sixties seventies and eighties ~ nothing like it the call for peace and harmony, how the lovin’ was easy a simple life satisfied with a pair of blue jeans and a guitar till we rectify the present we can relive the past while finding ways to make new memories one thing for sure is that gratitude is strength stay cheerful ~ things could always be worse be patient ~ things will definitely get better Published in my 24-page photo/anthology ~COVID 2020~ 2020 AP: 3rd place 2020 Submitted on July 10, 2020 for contest STRAND COMPLETELY NEW (8) sponsored by BRIAN STRAND - HONORABLE MENTION
