A poem about a friend with covid-19

Fully vaccinated you say
Covid won’t come for you now.
But hey it still can and it did!
Grabbed my friend!
Took him to hospital.
Stuck him in a bed
Silenced and in dread
For he can’t breathe
Covid stole his oxygen
It ripped through his heart
Pumping it hard
Made it high alert and
Left him in the lurch
As Covid spindles about
Inside his skin,
Muscles and blood.
No way he can leave
Or walkout
Or go home
Because this virus
Has thrown him down
And scrabbled with his life
While his wife waits
In terror for better news
For her loving husband
To come home.
Will he survive it?
Will Covid leave him?
All we can do is hope!

A poem about my friend’s husband who is in hospital with Covid-19. He has been fully vaccinated and is a type 2 diabetic. He basically had some low oxygen trouble and was sent to the hospital where he is trying to make a recovery. He has covid pneumonia at present which means he cannot breathe. We are hoping he doesn’t need a ventilator!
