Distance

If I keep my distance, don’t take offense;

For social distancing is our best defense

If I don’t socialize, please don’t feel disrespected;

For sacrifices are necessary to keep us all protected

If I wear a mask, don’t belittle my caution;

For if everyone did, we could slow or stop the infection

And If I am scared, don’t treat my feelings as less;

For we all should be extra cautious to survive the virus

    Your poetry makes it’s point. Punctuation, such as it is, is overrated! Nicely done.
