Long Covid For All Seasons | Long Covid Awareness Day Poem

Updated: 6 days ago




The frost lays us bare

to COVID. “It’s seasonal:

In winter it snares.”


ree


When spring starts to bloom -

“Sneezes are hayfever, yes?”

“Stop the doom and gloom.”



ree


Summer moves outside,

so why do we cough, splutter?

“A mask?” they deride.



ree


As autumn leaves turn

colour, so still do the tests.

Winter’s early bite?



ree


Or seasonal gift

from nature, given all year,

airborne winds adrift,



ree


Blowing your next chance,

not to dance with Long Covid

in seasons to come.

This Long Covid Awareness day we would like you to add support to calls for Clean Air by writing to your local MP to support the Long Covid charities' January 2023 call for a Public Space Ventilation Bill - see the open letter here.
