MIDWEEK WEDNESDAY:

MIDWEEK WEDNESDAY:
Halfway through another week.
My, how the time does fly.
As I sit here in the loneliness,
Wondering what and why.

What will be the outcome,
Of the world's present situation.
Why oh why did it occur,?
Upsetting every nation.

My son in law still does my shopping,
He really is a grand  man.
He also does his father's too.
Helping all he can.

But the sheer loneliness,
So different from time gone by.
No travelling or concerts,
I let out one long sigh.

Will those days ever return,
I suppose we have to wait and see.
But I know I took many things for granted,
I will emerge hopefully a much "Wiser Me".

  3. That loneliness would be hard Yvonne and its going on for far too long I fear. Even when they open up visiting to nursing homes people can only have a 15 minute visit and no hugs. Just such a sad situation all around.

  4. Maybe the people in your apartment area should do a social distance gathering on the lawn. Even just a couple of you so you can talk.

    1. We have no gardens in our street Alex, but it would be a good idea if we did.

  5. I wonder, too, Yvonne, what will be the end. Will the world get straightened out or can it get worse? I certainly pray not. Your son sounds like a caring man. God bless him for all he does. I hope you have a good rest of the week.

    1. I try and not think too much about the world getting worse as it frightens me Beverly. My son in law is a very kind man indeed.
      Keep well and safe.

  6. "One day at a time" is my mantra, Yvonne. The world will get through this. We will get through this. Meanwhile I am being as careful as I can, because I want to survive and live! But were the worst to happen, and I should die, I've had a good life and I'm grateful. But I am not planning to kick the bucket any time soon! LOL I'm glad that you have a wonderful son-in-law! Take care, my friend!
