Poems From Quarantine #21

Sadness for strangers

Empathy enveloped in regret

We’re losing time to live our dreams

and what dreams can be made from distance?

Early to bed, early to rise

taking things a half day at a time

Boredom strikes the naive

Others upset for how much is to be done

New paths emerge

Strength grows from hard times
