Vanishing Act

Driving rain, Sleet and Snow,
No place for a sick tramp to go.
Nowhere to rest his weary brow.
No need to worry, gone now.

This opens our eyes to the possibility of a homeless person getting Covid. So sad.

Like New Orleans et al, no place to even lie down . . . . . without drifting away . . . .

Hi Shirley, You painted such a real and vivid scene in this well-written write. My heart goes out to those with no place to rest their weary brow. Well done - Alexis
