Time quickly passing by
Photographs are a time-line of my life Yesterday feels like years ago Years ago was yesterday A Pandemic Social distancing, masks, seclusion Time standing still Anxiety, fear, loneliness Forcing the pace to stand still Breathing and reflecting Freedom came In unexpected ways Outdoor walks and hikes Hearing the sounds of the tweets above Breathing in the fresh, crisp air Time spent with loved ones you can’t get back Appreciating the time alone Finding solace in the quiet Loving the simplicity of the peaceful days Knowing that life as was will soon return

The poem carries the beauty of quietude. There is acceptance of what is, hope for the future and appreciation for the past with loved ones. "Yesterday feels like years ago. Years ago was yesterday" intrigues me.

Your poem seems to have the quiet wonder of a walk alone overpower the frustration of this long isolation. I love the hope at the end.....I need to read and believe it....
