Yes there is fear.
Yes there is isolation.
Yes there is panic buying.
Yes there is sickness.
Yes there is even death.
But,
They say in Wuhan after so many years of noise
You can hear the birds again.
They say that after just a few weeks of quiet
The sky is no longer thick with fumes
But blue and grey and clear.
The office is empty
Most working from home
Many with loved ones
Yet some on their own
The desks are abandoned
I wish you were back
I miss your faces
The banter the fun
I feel for our operatives
On the front line
Cleaning hospitals, clinics
It’s not a nice time
Our many non-nationals
Are far from their home
Away from their family
Frightened and alone…
