The widow did not shed a tear, and the world was aghast. They were such a happy-go-lucky couple. She was labelled as stoic, determined not to display emotion in public, cold, manipulative and whatever they could think of. Nobody knew she was breathing free for the first time.

Wedged …. by Aishwarya at kittysverses

Wedged between,
Nowhere to go and,

Acknowledgements :- Written in response to #writephoto and Reena’s Exploration Challenge. Thank you all for stopping by and reading.

Pandemic: The New Normal
written by Tessa Dean
March through June 2020
As I gaze unseeingly out the window at the now empty streets and sidewalks, I can hardly remember when everything changed. I listen for my neighbors. They are usually banging in and out of their apartments all day, laughing and shouting at each other. They holler hello as their visitors arrive. Hugging and kissing each other.
The community room is usually busy as people come and go either looking for a book in the small library or gathering in groups to talk and do activities while keeping each other company. One group colors every day. We have painting classes in there twice…

Absolute Trust…. by Susan Zutautas
Reena’s Exploration Challenge #139
Quarantined thoughts
Locked away to this day
Secrets I cannot tell
Entrusted by family and friends
Kept anchored away in my mind
till the very end
