The President Got COVID

The President got COVID, so

he has to work alone.

He talks with friends and confidants,

but does it on the phone.

He’s been both vaxxed and boosted,

but he got it anyway.

The moral of the story is:

Old COVID’s here to stay.

COVID Death Rate

The COVID rate is sliding down.

It slips from week to week.

The risk is still a factor, but,

our future’s not so bleak.

We’ll still have Life with COVID.

It will never go away.

Almost a million COVID dead….

…there’s nothing else to say.

COVID and the Ukraine War

They don’t seem to mention COVID when reporting on Ukraine.

Is the epidemic raging midst the carnage and the pain?

The question’s nagging at me.  It’s one I can’t ignore.

Does the Virus take vacation when two armies go to war?

Masks:  a thing of the past?

The CDC is saying that

we don’t need to be masked.

They thank all those who’ve covered

and have done as they have asked.

But now, they say, that things have changed–

and we can show our faces.

And pesky masks can disappear–

not leaving signs or traces.

US COVID Deaths, February 25, 2022: 2,797

They say that COVID’s over.

It’s just all So Yesterday.

But death still walks among us.

COVID hasn’t gone away.

920,829 Reported US COVID deaths:  February 4, 2022

They say it may be easing up.

There may be hope ahead.

There may be fewer who get sick.

There may be fewer dead.

They say that things could settle down.

We won’t be COVID free,

but, if the burden’s lighter…

then it sounds quite good to me.

COVID Whine

First, we got COVID.

Then, we got Delta.

Now, we’ve got Omicron.

I’m SICK of this and

the taunting way this

virus prances on.

Hundreds of thousands now have died.

I’ve done my part.

I’ve stayed inside.

But, there are those who don’t

vax or mask.

Some thoughtfulness

is all I ask.

COVID, March 2020

  When it Began

Who could imagine the death we’d see?

Who could imagine the sorrow?

Who could believe we still don’t know

how many will die tomorrow?

Who could believe our months of fear,

denial, and isolation?

Who could believe,

 with lives at stake,

how COVID would divide our nation?

AntiVaxxers

The Anti-Vaxxers play COVID Roulette.

You’d think by now they’d know.

Omicron chooses the easiest.

They’re among the next to go.

Coping with COVID:  869,620 American Deaths

Omicron dances and prances around.

There’s not a State where it can’t be found.

It chooses.  It beckons.  A hand of death.

And someone draws their final breath.
