To Live and Breathe



All around us

C19 floats on air

    invisible

      tasteless 

         odourless

wisps of deadly nothingness


Should we be terrified

afraid to breathe

    cornered?

      frightened?

         hesitant?

curling ourselves away from life?


Such unhappy thoughts 

have crossed many minds

   invisible

     tasteless

        odourless

just as deadly to our souls.


We need to breathe in ease and joy,

grateful for our very breath

   relaxed

     comfortable 

       resilient

opening up to life and living.


“The world isn’t split into good people and Death Eaters.”

~ J.K.Rowling, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
