You vividly described what most of us have been experiencing. I find myself sheltering more and more in place. I admired your use of the ABC form and the artwork filled with uncertainly. Be safe and well and best wishes in the contest- Joan

Good job, Harmony. Yesterday my son had two friends from out of town who wanted to come see him. We live in a small town where so far there has only been 9 cases, one death from the virus. They were all passing through. These visitors were from California and Las Vegas. I flat told the Las Vegas caller not to come here because of the virus and my son went to see them instead. He told the California visitor not to come because Rhonda and I are on oxygen and at risk. We try to be careful even though the town is fairly safe. Sadly I too realize and know I have no control.
We all look forward to an end to this nightmare. xxx Nancy:)

Comment from Dolly'sPoems
This is a poignant write and it annoys me that guidelines are not followed as they are in place to protect all and some people are very selfish in their ways and as you say we have no control and meet our fate, stay safe and stay our of harms way, an important and informative write, love Dolly x

Yes, I think many people will agree with your feelings in this poem, and the ending is just right. You relax a bit once you realize that you really don't have much control over something like this. We all just try to deal the best we can. That was the good part.
Here comes the bad part:
1)Write a one-stanza, five-line poem. (you have six lines)
2)The first letter of the each of the first four lines follow the order of the alphabet while the last line can be any letter whatsoever. For example, a poet might choose to use the following letter combination: D-E-F-G-A.
(you wrote an acrostic poem, not an ABC poem)
The last good part:
You have plenty of time to change it, so you will not be disqualified.

Thank you so much for the review and your exceptional comments
and suggestions on what I did and how to change it. I took out one line and did D-E-F-G-S. Have a great weekend!

This is nicely done. Your illustration pairs perfectly and sets the stage for your stage for your colorful words. We all have doubts these days. I am beginning to doubt it will ever go away.
