Small Thoughts I Had Today

Small Thoughts in Big Crisis

by Jean J. Lee

Social distancing to flatten the curve

It serves the purpose, but wracks our nerve

So tired of news and stories we observe

Alas! Is this crisis what we truly deserve?

People keep adding piles of food reserve.

Hope our humanity is still the thing we can preserve.

Oh, Lord, please let the virus swerve

    and go away for good with much less verve.
