Untouched for eight months, a pandemic beard
Three oldies mistook me for Gabby Hayes
The message: We’re stuck in a time that is weird
Untouched for eight months, a pandemic beard
By New Years I hope that I’ll have this beard sheared
But only if first I’ve reduced my malaise
Untouched for eight months, a pandemic beard
Three oldies mistook me for Gabby Hayes
In a world that seems to be moving toward more chaos every day, I decided to try to add a bit of levity. I've written most of these poems while participating in poetry writing classes in the OLLI program at the University of Cincinnati. Some have appeared previously in my blog, "Letters for George." I hope they bring a smile. David Lundgren (Cincinnati, OH)
