Today is Independence Day

Today is Independence Day
July fourth, twenty twenty
Covid nineteen is still with us
I'll not coat these times with honey
Social distancing suggested
Part of Corona Virus task
Don't rub your eyes with unwashed hands
When going out, please wear a mask
Just a little inconvenience
As you go throughout the day
With nose and mouth all covered up
You must project the words you say
Put optimism in your speech
Behind your mask should be a grin
Keep on smiling with your eyes
Facing this battle we are in
We're in an epidemic war
With an unseen enemy
Our weapons are described above
Remember freedom isn't free
We did not volunteer for this
But should all join in the fight
Marching, together, through this thing,
To come again to freedom's light
