Sinking further
Down, down

Feet can’t touch the
Ground, ground

Afraid that I might
Drown, drown

Pounds, pounds

Thoughts of panic
Bound, bound

Sinking further
Down, down

Life lost but heaven
Found, found

Puffing away
As he pushed his exhibit entry
Toward the auditorium

Suddenly
It dawned on him

Wind
Powered his energy

Home from college Just in time For Her grandmother’s 75th birthday

Debra’s heart Skipped a beat As she cupped her hands Over Nanna’s eyes And Whispered, “Surprise!”

Feeling For the first time In two years

The Pandemic had Finally Loosened its grip On their lives

Sinking further
Down, down

Feet can’t touch the
Ground, ground
