Covid Purpose

A Pantoum Poem by Ellen L

Days alone turned to loneliness Nights of longing woke me to a need Pages of social media planted a seed By chance, I found Covid requests. Nights of longing woke me to a need A couple down and out put up a post By chance, I found Covid requests Purpose drove me to my sister’s house. A couple down and out put up a post Bags of boots, coats, shoes, a pretty blouse Purpose drove me to my sister’s house Porch drop offs were what meant the most. Bags of boots, coats, shoes, a pretty blouse Pages of social media planted a seed Porch drop offs were what meant

the most Days alone turned to loneliness.
