Virus Vicissitudes in Haiku
Travel vanishes
a vicious novel virus
vexes the whole world.
Vulnerable folks
fall victim to the virus,
devoid of visits.
Varied vocal views,
verbal venom on all sides,
vie for victory.
Divisive voices
will not vanquish this villain:
vaccines are vital.
How to Cope During Quarantine
No where to go, no plans to make.
What is a family to do?
Let's add to our home zoo!
Kittens, tortoise, how about a snake?
No where to go, no plans to make.
Legos, anime, Steam, and Discord,
Manga, Minecraft, card games and board,
If you're still at a loss, you can always bake.
No where to go, no plans to make.
Stop looking at a screen and go for a walk,
ride your bike, or draw on the cement with chalk!
Your eyes and brain will enjoy the break.
No where to go, no plans to make.
The news of this virus is NOT fake.
So please don't put your life at stake.
No where to go, no plans to make.
