Wake Up U

Wake up
get out of your house
come get together
come love each other
throw out that bad coffee
that is bubbling and brewing
enough is enough
of what is reasonable
the coffee has perked
the grounds need throwing out
they have become bitter 
get out of your house
no more staying home
come let's get together
come let's love each other
wake up

You say it as it is, Being here in Western Australia, we have been so lucky so far but dare not become complacent. Stay safe. Phyl.

I would love to get out of my house but I have six more days of quarantine. I agree we have stayed home too long. We still have to wear masks here all the time. I hope that changes after June 15. We shall see. Have a wonderful week my friend. Blessings xxoo

Thanks Connie. Yes you had the 14 days of staying in. We still wear masks but they tell us if we get to 70% vaccinated that we might be able to take off our masks end of June. We also shall see. A new virus has shown up again so think might be unlikely now. God bless. love phyl

I'm with ya dear poet! I say, whilst we anticipate Jehovah God Almighty's Great day, we all get together for festival and forget those who've harmed us in the past and party in the streets like King David! Enjoy your Spring Sara....much love, james

Thanks Jack. We are opening up more and looks like we may be able to take off our masks next month if we keep our numbers down. Seems one virus to another but stay well. love phyl
