The Bag Lady

Maria decided to go shopping for her basic needs. Being hard of hearing and nearly blind, the virus threat was unknown to her. Arriving in town on an empty bus, she was surprised she saw no one and realized all the vendors were closed.

Though an angry mob of mean guns throb in front of the state seal

I will still listen for the songs of children

Because the dream of spring in the fields remains

I have to say I have a hard time believing it’s Saturday again!😳😄

Lazy day fun with my friends.

Before I knew all the rules

I was constantly fooled

Trying to copy without miss takes

Oh what a mess I would make

Even now I’m a copying fool

Sometimes my knowledge of the tool

Leaves a bit to be desired

If employed I would be fired

For oftentimes in my haste

It doesn’t all adhere in the paste

And what to my wondering eyes should appear

Something not meant, too odd for my sphere.

Haste makes waste – a little bit sexist, but–1575☺️

I love this song by Sam Smith, released in 2017 but I think appropriate now.

I got the message, make your own bread

It’s the kneading part that I dread

I’d use a food processor for the dough instead

But that would require getting out of bed.

Mr. Jones took the social distancing rule a bit too far when checking on the herd of cows on his farm. Early in March he installed a hidden camera in the scarecrow. The curious cows became used to clicking noises from the structure, and laughed secretly, hiding behind the trees.

A meeting of quietude and noise

Silent ferns join in the audience as

Churning waters break the silence

And reticent moss covered rocks observe.

Love is only what makes dancing to life’s tune worthwhile.

My only claim to fame

Is the barbecue game

The metal frame contains the flame

So every steak turns out the same.

I must admit it’s a welcomed blame

Being known as the “BBQ dame”.
