A Cure for the COVID-19 Blues

A Cure for the COVID-19 Blues

... is your small son
in an oversized hoodie
with his precious face
tight with determination 

as he strums a 
borrowed 
(and decontaminated)
ukulele 

over and over
as the chords
come more easily

his heartbreakingly beautiful 
soprano 
fills the main floor

and as he sings 
of the sun shining 
in the sky

I believe him - 

I’ll take his hope
and match it
with my own.
