2655

 

behind my mask

 appreciation breathes in

a colour


not seen

in my garden


the warm of sunlight

caressing my face

as i walk


in this new normal phase

lockdown now a memory


at the street vendor

things we took for granted

buying fruit


celebrating a new day with

huge helpings of hope stirred in

Here in the US, it looks like it's going to be deja vu all over again... I expect a lock down announcement soon.
