Quarantine March 23, 2020


in my conscious lifetime, 
it has never been so calm, where 
birdsong is louder than the roar of 
passing trucks
we walk alone or in pairs,
keeping out distance, 
calling out a hello, a dog is plus,
permission to be out in the sunshine.
we are at 35,000 cases, 
where will we be next week and
the next
the birds will keep singing
I will listen for them.
