Tired Of Corona Poem by Elizabeth Padillo Olesen

Tired Of Corona

Rating: 4.0


Just tired of Corona,
Tired of Covid 19 in 2020
Tired of the global pandemic
That has given us so many headaches.

There are health worries,
Worries over finances
Worries of losing jobs
And worries of losing lives.

We worry over our food
housing and medical bills
We cry like small children
Not able to say goodbye
where our beloved dies.

Tired of rising infections
Tired of Corona tests
Tired of facemasks
Tired of denying ourselves of giving
Friends and beloved hugs and kisses.

Tired ofwashing hands
by soap and disinfectants.
Tired of hand masks
And tired of fears
of touching anything
Which others have touched.

O, Corona, Corona
Why have you entered into our world
With your own rules of social distancing,
isolation and fears of space and air?

Why have you won to stop us
from hugging and kissing,
from talking and singing
from gathering as earth's
joyful and contented people?
