3,471 US Deaths:  February 8, 2022

The virus is receding.

Fewer sick.  Fewer dead.

They say the path’s still risky but,

 we’ve better days ahead.

They say that pretty soon we could

unmask and show our face.

We could eschew a toe-tap for a

touching, warm embrace.

Life could be getting better, and,

I surely hope it’s so.

But, we’re  living with this virus.

We still have far to go.
