Sweet Birdsong Now ---

Sweet birdsong now we hear all day. Road and aircraft noises nowhere. A strange new world has come our way. Keep others two metres away, to stop the spread we are aware. Sweet birdsong now we hear all day. As Covid spreads we pray and pray and wear our masks to filter air in strange new world that's come our way. Seems children safe and won't fall prey to virus that is ever near. Sweet birdsong now we hear all day. Pandemic growing everyday but now vaccines start to appear. A strange new world has come our way. A different game we all must play, in which we have duty to care. Sweet birdsong now we hear all day in strange new world that's come our way.

A poem which should be shared across the globe, it certainly is a surreal existence in our strange new world isnt it, I have noticed how quiet it has been when on our daily walks and how sweet the blackbird sings... we have just come out of lockdown and i hope it will follow for you soon:-) hugs jan xx

Hi Jan. Many thanks. The first thing that struck us was how silent the world had become. No turbo rumble from the blue. So birds can send out there calls and hear the reply. Magic. I have my first jab next week. Good to hear you're island out of lockdown but here, on mainland, we listen to confused messages and muddle through. Take care. Tony x
