    An old silent pond...
    A frog jumps into the pond,
    splash! Silence again.

    You use computers.
    IPods, mobiles, cameras.
    Why not write letters?

    Post-pandemic world
    Shuttered storefronts and silence
    Calmness meets chaos

    I walk city streets
    Gaze up at empty buildings
    And masks on the ground

    "What a strange week"
    I pause and appreciate
    The deafening quiet

    But the sun will set
    And it will become colder,
    I move on towards home

    The ocean is big,
    And also it is pretty,
    Pretty freakin' wet.

    We were like children-
    Immersed in simple wonder
    Belly laughs and grins

    Secrets whispered in
    Low voices, to eager ears
    With eyes that sparkled

    Yielding to soft looks
    The tenderness that comes with
    Life's sweeter moments

    Pointless panicking
    The boredom will get us first
    Daytime TV...gross!

    Ten dollar drinks—yikes!!

    Fat man sees small door,
    he knows he cannot fit through,
    tears flow free now.

    The sun is bursting
    Like a radiant lemon
    I want to squeeze it

    It's weird that squeeze is one syllable. It could easily be phonetically pronounced like ''ska-weeze''
