Covid-19
Has upended our lives
It seems all powerful
Throwing its weight around
Like a bully
And we are consumed
By the fear and changes
Around us
But maybe
To keep this all
In perspective
We can remember
It is just
A few strands of DNA
On an insignificant person
On a tiny planet
In a solar system
In the unfashionable end
Of the Milky Way

Smart perspective. Beautiful photograph. Life suddenly got odd but, in the big picture, not really. Disease has always been present; it just didn't affect modern life for most people. Now it is. And, later, it will again.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ally! We have been so blessed and didn't appreciate it. I wonder will we later on?

Disease is indeed a constant, tho' Mercifully Pandemics only come around about once every Century to wipe a lot of us out! The Earth is getting a respite to renew herself tho' and I'm Grateful for that, Humanity not always being the best Stewards of this Amazing Planet we Share with all other transient Life!
