Stay Safe and Eat Well

ロックダウンがちょうど解除されつつある時に書いた詩。

世の中が止まった時のことを覚えておきたいから、ここに載せておこう。

英語のみ。日本語バージョンもいつか書いてみたい。

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

Soup is done
Salad is made
Bread is ready

Fruits is on a platter
Dessert is in a fridge for later
Bubbles is waiting at the centre

Where is our guest?
When will the party start?
Why can't we eat?
Hungry kids with wiggly feet

We are longing for the gathering
Long gone after Pandemic arriving
Miss the family choir singing

But now
People are gradually coming out
Cafes are quickly filled no doubt
Family is happily out and about

Dream for having parties and outings
Wish for receiving smiles and chatters
Joy of sharing dishes and stories

Until then
We just get close with our loved ones
We just enjoy each other's companies
Even over the screens and the phones

Being apart is not a barrier
Spice to make our reunion merrier
Delicious food helps us feel happier

So Stay safe and eat well
