Best Lockdowns Poems


Premium Member Lions Led By a Donkey
I 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 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...

Premium Member 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...

It's twenty twenty there is a new threat
A virus with no cure as yet.
Its a pandemic, its all around.

A lockdowns required people are scared.

Premium Member The Big Agenda
We 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. 

So many people think they are WOKE...

Glory
I 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.

Fire:

Hey 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...

Covid-19
The World was in a turmoil,
the situation dire.
Corona Virus broke out in China
and spread the World like wildfire!

Covid-19, as it was called,
had the upper hand for sure!
Our country was faced with a virus
for which there was no cure!

Medical experts around the World
were working twenty-four hours...

Corona
Everything'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...

Premium Member How Do We Get So Obese
It’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...

How are all the college kids doing who cut off a finger or toe

Premium Member Lockdown Reflections
God 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...
