This Years Rose

Once one could hear the locust
Prying up for their new birth,
Now we are in isolation.

Rain hugs the bricks of our cottage,
We wait ‘til the next wave of fear,
It will come - it will go.

There will be buzzes from above,
And we will wait for Mother Nature’s fury.
She didn’t like her new flowered hat.

Nor do we.

Thank you for your concern. Actually, I'm isolated, and it's sort of difficult, but I can talk to the children by phone. They're isolated, too, there aren't any small ones.

Hi Sunlite, we sure are in trouble. An excellent write. We just have to wait on it passing or wait until a vaccine comes along. We shall give her a new hat next year and hopefully, she will like that one. Next years rose shall shine with such beauty for you, Sunlite. Loved the content. Have a wonderful evening. Hugs....Mike.
