Things Out of Reach

Going out on trips Everyone enjoys them Enjoying a snack and coffee All family get togethers Bride and groom wedding blues Eating out we all enjoy to do All shopping malls closed up No book store opened anywhere No road trips airports closed Nor the beaches or camping The schools are all closed Only computer learning People are out of work No money coming in Makes it hard to make ends meet I can go on and on It is the virus fault These things are out of reach No one knows for how long

Sadly that is the situation. I wonder how long it will last. But someday it will change for the better I'm sure.

Yes, many things now out of reach due to virus taking control. But is it the fault of the virus or is it mankind's faulty ways? All the best. Tony.

I hear you, Darlene; they took the computer virus control, out of electronics, and into the world of flesh and blood. I can't be the only one who sees this. Masks are over-priced, at any price.

Hello Joe DiMino, yes i agree with you taking the virus out of electronics into the world of flesh and blood. Your not the only one that thinks this way. Enjoy your day my friend.

All the countries leaders, need a kick in the pants. People are gaining weight and we are social beings. I really love the phrase....things are out of reach. Very clever, ny friend. Aox on them all. I think we will never see freedom again. People over 100 survive Covid. Nice phony game they set up. I believe none of it, Pangie xxx love the poem.
