No more work for a week or three
An unusual place, being free!
No more worries apart from one
But even that will soon be gone
So what to do with this gift that's here?
It's an early Christmas
So give a cheer!
I could write a book
Or sing a song
Create a religion
Or prove there's none
I could ride my bike
Through the fields and lanes
If I had one that is
Oh such a shame?!
I could call my friends
From around the world
Or sit in contemplation
Being one
There's so many things
That I could choose
But there's only one
That matters most
To spend this time
With my wife and child
Enjoying this pleasure
And the fun we find
So don't dwell on
What has happened now
Because it does not matter
One bit how
Because each moment is precious
A gift to behold
So embrace these treasures
And never let go

You too my friend. Thanks for the read
Common sense rules - but the worries for the future are still there - so many will be affected by the aftermath.
The pragmatist in me says life will go on. But the bit of me that has a heart couldn't agree more.
You 'told off' anyone (nicely) for getting too close to you - out of the home, that is.
I saw a 'spare any change, guv?' guy in town. An opportunist? Hardly anyone about anyway, let alone a good day with crowds about.
I had a short word with him, concerning 2 metres - for his sake and mine.
You mean you were outside?!! Shame on you orchi
Erm yes, but some essential shopping. Or Fido, me '18+'watchdog', would bite me! He barks at anyone not marking a poem 18+ if it should be so marked! Barmy, I know, as he is non-existent! lol.
Lovely happy words and fun to read. I hope you can look back on these times as those where the three of you drew closer as a loving unit.
Thanks DA. Well today's adventure putting together a slide was great fun!
Thank you, Saxon, for this uplifting poem. That is exactly what we all need right now!
As you day each moment is precious, treasures every one of them.
