The time went fast The time went slow
It came out of the blue That’s all I know
Coronavirus. Pandemic,
Covid 19, Wow!
We had to change our daily lives, but We didn’t know how
Adjusting to being home How long would that last? Everything we knew
Was gone in a flash
Zoom at first was totally unknown
But soon it was mainstream, just like the cell phone Book clubs, plays, friends, sharing virtually, for Goodness sake
Ha! Turns out, the learning curve was a piece of cake
I had my daytime pajamas & my nighttime ones too When I did get dressed I didn’t wear anything new
Old clothes seemed to work out just fine
Cleaned out closets & drawers, but not my keepsakes, I Mean, they’re mine
Growing tomatoes, herbs & writing a bit
Reading was great and was a great hit
As they say, so many books, so little time
And eating! We did a lot of takeout, because we do like to ) Dine
I lament my granddaughter’s loss of the school year I lament my lack of hugs and admit, I shed a tear
I feel sorry that my granddaughter’s dreams have to Change
And because I love them, I feel their pain
Yes, I felt sorry for myself, but then
I haven’t died, so that’s a win win
Oh vaccine, vaccine, hurry up, the world needs you – that’s A fact
The ladies in Vista Friends and Newcomers want their lives Back on track
