We live in a hushed atmosphere
More freedom, yes - but clinging fear
As COVID lingers in the air.
Out and about - some masked, some not
Careless people lose the plot
Summertime means outdoor fun
No one thinks they'll be the One ...
The virus harks back to December
The Chinese all kept coy – remember?
And what about the W.H.O.
Which sadly couldn't staunch the flow?
Our most precious gift is health
Stolen from us now by stealth
The race speeds up to find a cure
But how long will the wait endure?
