There is a virus among us.
Place sensible distance between.
Listen well – do not fuss;
The likes of this, has never been seen.
Shelter in Place,
You are not alone.
Be in your own space,
Just stay at home.
Equipment requests denied;
Personal protection;
They said the president lied.
In spite of this spread of infection!
It’s up to all of you;
Follow the rules;
Whatever you do;
Don’t act like fools.
These are tricky times;
Cover your face;
Avoid grocery lines;
So much at stake.
Wash your hands;
Carefully disinfect;
Objects and surfaces can
Be safer if you inspect.
Little things are big.
Big things become small.
You couldn’t give a fig,
Like it doesn’t matter at all.
Flatten the curve.
Research, data, science...
Collect some nerve.
Get into compliance.
Do as you must;
One nation, one world;
In God we Trust;
As a pandemic is unfurled.
Pray for peace.
Lord, how long will it last?
With faith, love, and hope believe
This too shall pass.
After the fact, you want to say you tried.
Look back, make no mistake,
People suffered, people died.
So much sadness left in the wake.
This time is a very good one,
If we but know what to do.
You’re under the gun,
We are thinking
of you.
All for one and one for all;
Stop. Put everything on hold.
Use caution, avoid the fall;
Blessings to young and to old.
