Please come back
And sit with us,
In the backyards,
With sun and bees
And glasses of juice.
What keeps you away,
A simple virus
Cooked up by the devils?
Here you will find
Eager selves raising their glasses.
You can come through clouds
Back again to these parts
Where the inclination is to
Paint a world with whims.
Still we remain the same.
Do return, won’t you?
The lore will tell you some did
To find glory in rebirth.
We shall sit at safe distances
You shall relive your gaiety.
Come Back From The Dead

Re: Come Back From The Dead
I am certain the effects of covid have been felt as thoroughly in the otherworld as in the living one. I raise a glass to this write, and to a future without covid in it. Intriguing piece.

Re: Come Back From The Dead
With every loss of a loved one, we wish to have one more visit with those departed. Good feeling in this piece.

drawn to the sentiment but fearful that more zombies will result at the end of this than the (re)awakened!?
