Spring is here 

But people are indoors 

Corona is to be feared 

Social distancing is required

Spring has arrived 

And all should stay inside 

Corona is the enemy 

Around the world, 

people are dying 

Spring here at home 

I'm in my room reading 

Books are my everything 

Be safe everyone

here's an m&m 

a chocolatey gem 

for u from me 

melts on your tongue 

sweet til it's gone 

that 1 m&m 

from me to u 

i often dream of m&m's 

and how they take us 

to the heavens 

comes in differing hues 

from yellow, red, green 

to orange and blue 

m&m's satisfy 

and that's so true!
