Poetry Month Day #27: Quarantine Birthday

I'm sorry for the delay in writing. Enjoy!

When tomorrow comes
I expect dread
I will have the 'glums'
I won't leave my bed

It will rain
It will pour
I'll be stuck in vain
Furthermore

I doubt I'll have fun
I just can't imagine
Doing anything fun
My birthday, but I stay IN

 No party!
No friends!
No Thomas or Marty
Or Von Auren twins

The cake will be sour
The limes will be sweet
I will spend hours
Blanketed on the couch seat

What's that you said Mother?
Can it be true?
We'll all be together
So it WON'T be blue!

-Trevor :)

I am actually looking forward to my birthday, mind you ;)

Daily Poem #1: Pathogen

A pandemic; passed from one to another A calamity A mishap A fluke But nevertheless, a catastrophic blow to all the ends of the Earth Spreads almost liquid-like with power of poison Uprooting routine Tearing families apart But bringing them together all the while Unison; the warmth of family It takes a viral terror to bring families together. While left is right And right seems wrong A lack of throng A warm hand, holding everything together A cool breath of reassurance Divinity is everywhere, yet it is most apparent during confusion and strife Courage from above Living in fear abolishes peace Smear the paint of calm swiftly Ring the bell Fly a flag of reconciliation -Trevor :)

Daily Poetry #7: The Leader

A strong man of courage Putting others before himself A hill full of anguish A mountainside of sorrow Bravery drawn Hands pointed to heaven Leading the charge for freedom Destroying the lurking grief A leader The Leader -Trevor :)
