Tick-Tock

A few months have passed still the bedlam abounds Countries still in lock-down, few borders are crossed Will that day return when we're back to common ground So we return to our previous than head into our lost Our streets remain empty as we hide ourselves away How long do we go on continuing these strange times As we read day after day that this Corona still slays Whilst our clocks tick away as we await our last chime <*>

sadly the clock is ticking faster for some than expected, just stay safe with your lovely little boy and gorgeous Olive Eloisa. we do not have the virus on the Island but tonight I am on my 2nd visit to see mum in her carehome before it goes on lockdown and I can't see her, its a sobering thought to think I may never see her again:-( hugs to you all Jan xx
