Stay The Pace

Complacency Appears To Be The New Threat To Society

While Some Are Having Fun

Going On Their Merry Way

Having Picnics In Closed Parks

Drinking Parties After Dark With Others By Their Side

They Are Undoing All The Good Work That Has Been Done 

Unstitching The Threads That Have Woven Us Together

Stay Strong, Stay The Pace 

Take A Breath Breathe In The Clean Air

Breathing Out, 

Clear Your Head Of All This Worry, Fear And Despair 

Now Go On Your Way

Lighter Than Before

Knowing That You Are

One Day Closer To Walking Out Your Door

Taking Time to Listen To The Birds Sing 

As They Fly From Here To There

Watching Them Make Their Nest

Is Nature At Its Best

Helps Calm Our Hearts And Minds

Reaches Into Our Souls

Telling Us That We Are Finely Coming Home 

Into Ourselves And With Each Other

With Kindness, Respect And Deep Gratitude

For Our Brothers And Sisters On The Frontline 

We Are Staying Home

Towing The Line

By Flattening The Curve 

Is Proving To Be Right

When All Are Working Together

We Are Winning This Fight.
