This is a count-your-blessings kind of poem that hits the spot like one of those cold drinks you offer. Maybe something positive will come out of this pandemic, like.a return to simple pleasures like porch sitting, or better yet, you winning a contest.

This is great. Very Welcoming. Yes, we're all looking forward to catching up with friends. Soon. Good job with the poem. I like the phrase " My porch is the best! For love, peace and comfort." Good luck.

I enjoyed reading your your poem. It is an upbeat picture of what is happening in the world today. I give six stars for the flow and how the rhyming goes with the flow.

I like the picture you chose to go with your poem. Your poem keeps an upbeat theme with a charming rhyme. It's nice how you keep positive in the face of a pandemic, with the simple wishing of spending some time on your porch with friends. Good poem!

I would love to have a porch visit with you! Life- in the world today- is uniquely lonely.

I, too, sit on my patio. But passers-by only wave and nod.

Enjoyed!

    On occasion, I have a few here and there that stop by but most just walk on by.

    Thank you for your comments and review.

Salt Lake City Utah.... my son goes to the University of Utah. Maybe you two have unknowingly stood in the same checkout line at the same time at the supermarket. Could be... Covid was cause of death for my aunt and we've had three families in my group (two who are in quarantine now, and one family just got out of quarantine) kindest regards and best wishes. Robert

Aw, this poems resonates deeply with me. I, and many others, can relate to this poem.

I have not seen my friends since March. Of course, I talk with them on the phone, but it is not the same as seeing them.

Perhaps I should social distance with them on the porch as your poem eloquently expresses.
