Sheryl's Poem


I have been hiding in books

Lost in books to keep my head

occupied away from what’s out

there


For the last 12 months I’ve read

about a book a week short and 

long kept me reading mysteries 

novels and even a book about

Churchill


I thank my librarians when I see

them working so hard to get me 

books 


When I find one I like I buy more 

to share with my grandchildren &

sisters


The escape carries me into the

problems of others whether it be 

a lost dog, remnants of an illness 

or the trials and tribulations of 

WWII


I figured if people could survive

both sides of the war home and 

the battlefield I could survive a 

pandemic
