Corona Virus Tagged Our World With Our Feet Off Base



It's like a tough game when we try to play fair
We didn't know that this fearful crisis was ever so near 
It came in with a sudden blast, we had no clue 
But no one really knew what to do
It struck like lightning way up in the sky and shook the world with people from far and nigh
It clapped like thunder, what a massive sound
It twisted the world like a spinning wheel going round and round
We are unable to determine when this invisible virus will no longer be around 
Morning, noon and midnight lurching down on us without a sound
It didn't come like snowflakes that quickly melted away
It didn't come through the night and vanished by the break of day
But it came almost as quick as the bat of an eye as swift as a rainbow moves in the sky
As we continue with this challenge not knowing the outcome
We are grateful and appreciative of what others have done
We can stand and rest assure that GOD is bigger than any virus we know
And he will comfort and defend us and that's for sure
Necessary precautions can't be taken lightly or for granted, so let's be real
For some may think that the virus is no big deal
But lives have been lost and sickness expanded worldwide with medical teams and staff working side by side
If you think it's a joke don't laugh in my face stay in your lane
And remain in your place
So get on base before you are tagged out
If this is done then there won't be any doubt
So we pray, hope and act each and every one
Because this great world we live in is second to none
It preys on the healthy, wealthy, young and old
It has no preference between the rich and poor
For race is not an option and that's for sure

Traffic Jam

            So I was sitting in traffic today and I was the happiest I could ever be. Now I know I know, traffic isn't the greatest gift to mankind. The science of traffic continues to amaze me as to how and why it takes so long to get from point A to point B in 45 minutes when on a good day, it would usually take 5 minutes. Traffic felt a little different today though. Sure I had somewhere to be and yes I was stuck in the dead center of it, but I was content. I had my Snarky Puppy going, Vitamin water in the cup-holder. Couldn't complain! While being stuck in the middle of traffic and being the happiest black man in the world I thought to myself, "Why am I so happy in the middle of this traffic jam?" The answer was found in my focus.       Now usually when I get caught up in the 5 o'clock rush I'm always looking around trying to see where I can make my next move. I'm usually trying to see if I can get ahead of other cars, scoping out the...
