An ark would be an interesting option - until one inhabitant showed signs of Covid19?! Extinction might result? Love the p poetic form for this offering. ♥

A mask made from fabric gifted by a friend adds a layer of protection, methinks.

I like both of your offerings, Gillena. The first hints at how the pandemic has separated us and yet united us. The second makes me wish for an ark of safety for everyone.
