Best Lockdowns Poems
Lions Led By a DonkeyI could see the virus approaching so why couldn't he?
But he had to keep investors happy and save the economy
On his watch people in their thousands, died needlessly
The U.K. had a spiralling death rate, a preventable tragedy.
He didn't listen to the top scientists, they have...

South African LockdownSouth African lockdown
Gone is the heave, the bustle and the crowds
The pavements are weeping like widows without sounds
The governments are ruling with their heads in the clouds
We should not be submissive wearing fear as our shrouds
Shops and small business are collecting dust,...

Neighborhood
The many positives of Covid
Well for me there have been plenty
I live alone inside my home
The year is 2020
Just a soupcon of neighbours
in the past I have known
And if perchance
one day we meet
we smile
as we greet with
a welcome salutation
Though...

Stay, Doctor Fauci, Stay
Oh, don’t abandon us now!
We so love your masked fear.
Tell us, Dr Fauci, my dear.
What shall I do, Holy Cow?
Should I check my cat’s rear?
Is there Omicron in my ale or beer?
I fret over eating meat from a sow!
Shall I go check my skin in...

The Big AgendaWe have all gotten used to wearing our masks just like we do our bras and panties, now we need get used to wearing a muzzle in case we rub the "Woke" and "Snowflakes" up the wrong way.

GloryI have watched tree-giants
in deep forest-cathedrals
declare glory, speak of heaven
in sanctuaries where birds rejoice
between branches
under leafy-windows
– green and gold.
I have seen where roots
pierce stone.
Then, glazed December
cracked. Empty
summer storms
thundered,
stabbed lightning
straight through giant-hearts
to the dirt floor.

Lets Go BrandonHey America, what do ya think of your Pres now?
Still think he’s a moderate?
Still think the virus came from a bat?
Still think your child needs to wear a mask?
Still think Jan 6 Committee isn’t a hyper-partisan circus?
Still think MAGAs riot but BLM & Antifa protest?
Still...

CoronaEverything's coming up dead roses
March is like five months too long
Spring is no longer a time in the sun
But hiding away from it
The corona another name for the sun
Is coming up like flowers but not to enhance life
But they say to remove it
Corona rises in...

How Do We Get So ObeseIt’s called, ’excessive fork to mouth disease’.
Overeating too much of what we please.
Sitting excessively on our derrière?
Watching TV, or writing poetry with magical flairs?
Lockdowns were absolutely no excuse.
Blaming it on “Climate Change…”a bad joke and so incredibly obtuse.
Get off our buttoxes and exercise at home.
It’s...

Lockdown ReflectionsGod is sovereign over pandemic
Vanquishing miserable health-crises
He knows what is best, blessing wellness-zest
As His people trust His omnipotence.
With God’s omniscience in nature’s event
He’s not surprised with the COVID-19
Allowing such record in history
Though causing community lockdown angst.
God for sure knows varied government bans
Cognizant of every health...
