“What I miss though, most of all”
Can’t get flour or yeast
Or even toilet tissue.
But shortages of goods
Are not at all my issue.
Masks, long lines, no films,
I can endure these trials.
What I miss though, most of all,
Is seeing people’s smiles.

I’m retired and miss my new found ability to casually make plans to see retired friends, after so many years of no time to see them when I was working. Oh the irony.
That’s so true!
