This World Today

© by Bud Lemire on Sept 27, 2020

Just when you think it's safe, the numbers start rising

Seeing people without masks, it's not too surprising

Many are keeping their distance, at least they try

In hopes that this virus, will pass them by

Yet, sometimes the virus will get to those who try their best

There are even times, when the virus fools the test

I guess the best way, is to catch it at the very start

If you don't feel normal, to the Hospital you must dart

As this world keeps on turning

There's so much we're still learning

For many, there's still hope

For many, they're too weak to cope

In this world today, we've discovered each day to be a blessing

Alive and breathing, life surely is the greatest lesson

What will you do with the time, while you live

For me, it's always rewarding to share, so I give

I share with others, what I do best

I'm always thankful, to have been blessed

I've been taking life, day by day

To me, that is truly, the human way

This world today is so much different than the world last year.

Ever since the Covid spread to our part of the world, we

have to take so many safety measures. Some of you may

not believe it to be a big threat. Not until you, or someone

close to you gets it, and sometimes dies. Wear the mask,

wear the gloves, take your temperature daily, and be sure

to know your body and how it feels. If it feels off the normal

get checked out before it's too late. Be safe, instead of sorry.
