Delight?
Is there delight ?
In this pandemic fight?
Let’s get delight- full!
Change the mindset in that skull.
Delight in unsung heroes
Doctors, nurses, those volunteer roles,
Delight in time to stop and stare
To show each other kindness and care,
Delight in the air you can breathe
The springtime birth - budding leaf,
Delight in the sun on your face
The world at a much slower pace,
Delight in what’s being taught
The important things for which we fought,
Delight in those held dear
The lesson is very clear!
We don’t need the rat race
Now we give each other space,
Now we consider others plight
Now we keep our neighbours in sight,
Now we focus on basic essentials
Displaying empathy - our credentials,
Delight in the hereafter-
Delight in the sound of laughter,
Living life at a slower pace
The world with a caring face,
Delight- be delight- full and humbled
At this time - when the world stumbled.
