Loved this positive view on being self-isolated. Reach out and touch someone. Your presentation is fun. I like the bubble particularly and the colour! Such an inspiring piece and very sweet! Stay well!

Well said Lisa. I like your verse and its gentle nudge to think of others and bring a helpful dose of inspiration to others. I like how your final stanza used end rhymes. It added a lilt. Well done.

    Thanks for your review, Melissa. (I've been slow in responding because I am writing so much - this lockdown has triggered so many emotions and observations.)

This 5-7-5 suite, Easter Bubble, has the correct framing and looks within to find actionable and doable items to extend the limits of ability to the outer world.

Yes, you are right. Don't close down, reach out. Emails and telephones are tools. I too have that feeling of helplessness and wanting to do something for someone else. Then I think "Staying here is saving lives."

Yes. A great idea is to run errands for elderly in your area. Especially if you are a healthy middle aged adult! This is a topic I don't think anyone has touched yet! Great job!!!

Lisa, your poem mirrors my sentiments. I stay at home a lot; home it is my fortress. It's a safe place, but I know I should reach out more to people. About your notes, you do so much in life and that's wonderful--diversions that inspire you. This poem's brevity is its charm. Excellent work. Good luck. Happy Easter.

Hi there,

Well, the current situation throws up all kinds of challenges and possibilities and it is up to the individual how these things play out. Of course, there are those who have no choice.

As many are having to stay in, there are countless others who do not have that opportunity and have to put themselves at risk. It's truly mindboggling.

A lot of folk are reaching out electronically which has proven to be both a blessing and a curse! lol

Nice little piece.

This is an excellent comment on current problems without ever mentioning the hated V word or should that be C word? Well who cares.

The poem uses coining with a splendid creation -- 'staycation'. I've been having those for years.
