There are lots of prompts every day here on WordPress. The only word that comes to mind for me is:

Is it just me or is the world right now perfectly described in this word?

For those stuck with family inside

Remember when you went for a ride

Showing the kids animals in a zoo

Now you know how they felt too.

Life sequestered always a gamble

Just how much togetherness can you handle?

All fine as a concept, even envied by some

But being forced, now it’s troublesome

Olden days of all living in a cabin

Now life forges a different habit

Entangled lives by force or by choice

Do you now have a different voice?

Take a lesson from a child

Wide open eyes

Without prejudice

Seeking adventure

Unlimited imagination

These brave hearts

Should continue as adults

Children need us to show hope and determination, not fear.

Look to light

Forward to the bright

Ending fight

Boinnnnggg! As I go back in time to the April firsts in my younger days and visit my old neighbor of twenty years, remembering her each year and on her April first birthday. I’m sure she’s in some other universe acting as a substitute grandmother as she did my own children in the seventies. She was here from Holland and had what I thought an old fashioned schedule for every day of the week. If invited for tea, her work for the day had to be done first. My children probably remember her most from her Christmas and Easter confections. She was a wonderful woman and I miss her.

Known by her striking red hair

Her temper flares as well

Nicknamed Red by her friends

Caused her ego to swell

Often outrageous actions

Followed a temper true

Justified by her Irish hair

Repercussions then came due

Aging seemed to calm her some

Realizing all she’d done

Fighting for just causes

None of which she’d won

Alas this tale is sorrowful

But heed her actions please

Always using temperance

Doesn’t accomplish the deed.

(After spending time putting this in centered form, WP changed it back. I don’t know how to have it posted in the way I want it to appear, as centered. I must say frustration levels with WP are getting to be too much.)

In clouds

Grey and white shown

Representative of

Feelings now held by you and me

Distress

We must concentrate on the white

The white showing us hope

Bright salvation

Redeems

In an article by the New York Times, you can read how the Mexico border construction is ramping up to prevent the virus from them. What? Mexico should be scared of America giving the virus to them!

How can a man be so uninformed yet so powerful, so unintelligent yet blatantly followed? He has no common sense, he’s a petulant child! Excerpts:

Shine a light on your intentions

Are you a sincere chap

Holding my hand with promises

Holding close to my wishes

Enlighten me, is this real?
