Stay Home She Says
Cell phone plays a familiar tune
I glance toward my husband
Yours he says.
I do not answer
Not one to run toward a phone
Phone announces it is our daughter
She rarely calls
I walk toward the phone
Possibly getting it on the last ring
She is on her way over to visit
Good news.
Maybe social distancing is over?
She is our trained epidemiologist.
Not on our life.
She came over to caution me
To stay home
