Sunday Mass in my home.
Live streaming from afar.
What we took for granted,
is now, what we yearn for.
It started in one town.
One red pin on the map.
The numbers keep rising.
The map full of red pins.
I’ve seen this on the telly.
Titled ‘The Last Ship’.
Storyline matching ours.
Parallel to our nightmare.
Lots of advice out there.
To stay safe. Be safe.
Pandemic declared.
Panic at the stores.
The barrier is up.
Yet, fear seeps in.
A stillness in the air.
Emptiness surrounds.
It spreads without favourites.
Countries in lockdowns.
Trapped in the same nightmare.
The cure still out of reach.
What does the future holds?
Each in their own bubbles.
A sanitized city inside a dome.
Or zipped in spacesuits.

especially with protective equipment

Thank you. We all have to do our part by staying home to help the medical frontliners. May a cure be found. Let’s pray for God’s mercy.🙏🏻🌹

My family followed church service at home this past Sunday, via livestream. The world is changing fast and faith is the only thing that will bring us through sane and in one peace. Your words have beautifully encapsulated the current angst. Have a blessed week. Thank you. Smiles xx

Thank you.🌻We have been having livestream Mass for the home bound. So, I’m a little used to this. But not receiveing Jesus in the Holy Eucharist is so very sad.
