It's Been a Year

IT'S BEEN A YEAR

MARCH 1 2020

       since I have

 been on the LIRR

since I have

seen NYC as we approach

       since I have

seen my SSA work building as we ride by through Jamaica

since I have

purchased e tickets on my phone  

 since I have

accumulated Fitbit steps as I walk the platform waiting

and then it was time to head in to NYC 

MASKED

DISTANCED

SOLO

WARY

ANXIOUS

THRILLED

Mr Rogers famously said

“When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, "Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.”

― Fred Rogers

Truth

find them
