The Sane and the Sensible

When a storm is passing through
  What do the sane and the sensible do
They hunker down until the crisis is past
   Safe, not sorry ~ as long as it lasts

Sadly on our news, still a few morons strutting about thinking it doesn't apply to them, makes it harder for the rest of us. Maybe another couple weeks In the bunket but this virus leaves a scorched earth in its passing. Tom

Let's hope the tide turns sooner rather than later. Here's to patience and perseverance. ~ Stiff Upper Lip

Thanks, Alexis. The message seems sane and simple enough: Stay out of the killer's path. Hang in there, my friend! :) Gershon

Wonderful message.. I'm sane.. So I kept low in my house.. I'm sensible.. So I never tried to go out and spread.. Let the storm pass. Great write Gershon..
