Pandemic Poetry - Part 2: The Share




Poetry By the Numbers 2.0 series is put on hold for Pandemic Poetry! Because a pandemic waits for no one, It just kinda takes over.



I loved the pandemic poetry! Some sent to me, others I discovered on my own. I'd like to share some COVIDkus with you today—including some of my own. I'll also share some general pandemic poetry in the featured section.

There are several emotions that are happening at this time. I've separated our COVIDku by some of these emotions.
