This popped up on my FB page today from a friend. No idea who wrote it, but thought I'd share.

We fell asleep in one world, and woke up in another.

Suddenly Disney is out of magic,
Paris is no longer romantic,
New York doesn't stand up anymore,
the Chinese wall is no longer a fortress, and Mecca is empty.

Hugs & kisses suddenly become weapons, and not visiting parents & friends becomes an act of love.

Suddenly you realise that power, beauty & money are worthless, and can't get you the oxygen you're fighting for.

The world continues its life and it is beautiful. It only puts humans in cages. I think it's sending us a message:

"You are not necessary. The air, earth, water and sky without you are fine. When you come back, remember that you are my guests. Not my masters."

Question Author
Thanks for that link bookbinder, always nice to credit an author is possible. Poem by Haroon Rashid
Just had an hour long chat with one of our sons who lives abroad, on FaceTime. Lovely as it is, it just reminds me how apart we are, and when will we see him again :(
Maggie, that’s a really good read, and to my mind far better than some of the stuff..poems etc...I’ve read in relation to this virus.
