I know what you mean. Now it seems as if we are headed back into the same situation again. I hope things can be brought back under control again soon, but the prospect doesn't seem to be too bright just now,

    Yeah especially in VIC. I think the Premier over there or down there for us must have been a bit lenient letting restrictions lift too soon. Or just plain stupidity of the public as to separation rules and stuff. Thanks for coming by and the BIG SIX. Need to get posting again. (Both of us!)

Wondered if you were still around?

Had not heard from in a while.

Dealing with some health issues, so have not written much lately.

Definitely understand, and can relate to, this poem and the notes.

    Good hearing from you old mate. I do need to get another Ramble up. Seeing the regular contest winners getting up again. Can't complain as I don't bother with them.

Geoff,

Oh, wow. I wouldn't have believed anything could keep you down! *smile* I know how you love your adventures - you must be really antsy by now. I hope you'll soon be able to go wherever you like. Thanks!

Haha you picture is perfect--love it. Your poem flows well with good rhymes and a good storyline, too. As I read it, I could see everything you mentioned. Hopefully, the virus will be defeated and life can resume changed but still better than isolation. Thanks for sharing.
Respectfully, Jan

Oh, I know, we all want to be out and about. But I have great respect/. We have been so hard hid here in Spain and so many deaths that I'm wary. We all are. I liked your poem a lot and understand the sentiments. Ulla:)))_

This is a very well written poem telling of the frustration from the Covid to where you can't make your daily or monthly trips you need and want to. I hope and pray that it will end soon my friend. Very nice job on your poem and the art work. It kind of weird going for appointments. May God bless you and Louise. Teri

What a joy it is to read your pieces!! You described how tough it's been perfectly and in such a cute way as usual. Loved the photo, too. Hilarious!

I hope you and your family are doing fine despite. It's been hard over here in Brazil, too.

I haven't left my place in ages. Glad I have a view of the street. Imagine those who don't!Keep safe!

I do understand. I am getting tired of being home too. I want to travel up North and visit with my married children and their families and my 88 year old Mom. I so miss them but am afraid to travel. Thank you for sharing.

I think the meter might need a little bit of work. I also think the title doesn't really make a lot of sense. I really agree with your sentiments of wanting to go out, though. I hope you can get to go out soon.
