Unknown

Loss
Of what
We have known
Forced to adjust
Within the unknown
What will happen?
To us all 
In these
Times

There is so much power in just a few words, Heidi. Life as we knew it does seem to be lost. Change is hard to accept when it means living in isolation. Very well penned! Hugs, Carolyn

We have all learnt to live in the era of Corona, that is us the lucky ones, so please God if we survive, we will learn to live in a new world with a new found respect for humankind and see the beauty around us, rather than taking it for granted. A great poem Heidi, All the best, Jennifer.

If civilization ever returns to normal, we will appreciate it more after this time of isolation. It's been hard adjusting. Your poem is beautifully written in a challenging form! Hugs, Carolyn (Thanks for your note. I hope you are well too!)

I'm sure a lot of people feel the same way. Hopefully we'll all be stronger and wiser on the other side of this.

You can just feel the tension in this write. These are days of insecurity for sure!
