Life In 2020

entry picture

Hugs and handshakes

Are things of the past

Kissing is missing

Germs spreading 

Too fast

Feeling guilty to cough

Or even to sneeze

In case others think

I've got this disease

Gloves cover my palms

Close by is my soap

I won't be alarmed

But i'll pray & I'll hope

First it was brexit

Then it was storms

What's coming next,

Is it locusts in swarms?

I saw Andy on Monday and I got back with the scarf I had left behind on a Speak Easy night, had a good talk with my black and white winter warmer and he has forgiven me but said don't do it again!

Ah but you'll continue to touch us with your poetry Nigel so it won't be that boring at all! Hope you've got yourself a new scarf by the way ?

Warnings handed out
no physical touching
we may be safe
but how boring is that!

Decades ago I used to pass by
A sandwich-board man who captured my eye.
In Oxford Street West One for space he'd vie
With his message: The End of the World is Nigh !
