MARCH 11 2020: A SONNET
Shall I recall the final normal day?
It dawned a Wednesday morning bright and clear.
The day began with friends and bridge to play
Some winning, loosing, chatting and good cheer.
We stopped at Kingsway Garden Mall for lunch,
The food court proffered Julius and fries.
I bought a purse, the cheapest of the bunch
I’d get another if I’d been unwise.
Two friends and I crooned trios by the bed
To comfort one whose death was close at hand,
And then I packed a bag for days ahead
To be with sisters on a visit planned.
Free day to go and do whate’er we chose.
I say! When will we next have one of those?
