Pandemic  Poetry - Part 2: The Share</div></b></u><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Poetry By the Numbers 2.0 series is put on hold for Pandemic Poetry! Because a pandemic waits for no one, It just kinda takes over.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I loved the pandemic poetry! Some sent to me, others I discovered on my own. I&#39;d like to share some COVIDkus with you today—including some of my own. I&#39;ll also share some general pandemic poetry in the featured section.<br />
<br />
There are several emotions that are happening at this time. I&#39;ve separated our COVIDku by some of these emotions.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<u><b>Loneliness</u></b><br />
