Just Desserts Poem by David Wood

Just Desserts



The innocent, the weary, the old
Are all captured alike
Covid spreads like a relentless fog
An invisible cold enemy.

Incompetence fails to stop its track
Only sadness prevails
Relentlessly it claims it's victims
With every timid breath.

Nature has been violently abused,
Biodiversity
Taken for granted with much contempt.
Mankind now pays the price.

Thanks Cowboy, Covid rages the world and everyone both high and low. I feel so sorry for the poor.

This is an excellent poem about the pandemic, but I have to tell you that when I first saw the title, I thought about Thanksgiving, as in: " I don't eat the main course; just desserts."
