In the middle of Covid-19

I sit at my desk

My small little workspace

Cluttered yet organised

And I ponder my life.

In a few days I leave

A chapter – not closing – just on hold.

I plan to travel

To see another part of the world

And what an adventure

It will be.

In the middle – or at the tail end I hope

Of the pandemic known as Covid-19.

Some say I am mad

I do not disagree

But this is the opportunity I’ve got.

And as I drown at my work

In the endless tasks to complete

More are added.

The job never ends.

Thus I am drained

I need that break

I need something new to explore

Somewhere to go

Crazy I might be – in the middle of Covid-19.
