This poem is excellent in every respect--timely, descriptive, and uplifting. Personifying the virus is an effective means of characterizing its power, which IS waning!

This is such a hopeful poem, you are right, we are turning the corner. It's exciting and gratifying how we as a people worked so hard to overcome this pandemic, especially Donald Trump who facilitated the fast track, saving many lives. Thank you for sharing. :)

Taming the Virus
by kahpot

Hello, Kym,

Cool .... it's a new poetic form to me. It seems like a lot of rules. The virus has been hard for people all around the world. But things are getting better. I had my first vaccine shot and next month I'll get the last one. Well done!

So, my friend, you attempted a Cube poetry format. I admit I had to read it a few times before I could make sense of it, but it seems challenging nonetheless. The best part of it to me is that it starts out sad and dreary, then goes on to a brighter optimistic view that I support very much. My favorite lines are, "by joining minds the world as one find winning signs." Great idea and this is probably the best one I've read about the pandemic!
Jesse

    I am glad to support your quest to chase your muse, my friend. It is hard to understand a Cube but whatever it takes, go for it!

This poem meets the requirements of the cube16 style effectively, sending a positive message on "taming the virus". It is refreshing to focus on the progress being made in this regard.

Like the photo you choose to go with your poem, they are a perfect match
yes we are winning this evil race, if only others would follow the rules it will beg one much sooner
I keep praying that it will and, in Gods time it will all go away.
Thank you fort sharing
