A Walk Down Memory Lane

 Stores, banks, schools, daycares, and businesses are shut down 

The road is eerie and quiet

Empty is the town,

but the birds are still singing

Babies are born,

and the clock keeps on ticking. 

The soil is warming up, waiting patiently , for the seeds, still eager to be planted. 

No, it has not ended. 

nature, willing, beautiful, and strong, 

With love, caring, consideration, and compassion, 

Someday, somehow it will all be mended.
