I am keeping my distance from people today
I am trying to stay a least six feet away…

        I noticed that Ken Nesbitt is the author of this poem I’m keeping my distance from people today.
        I’m trying to stay at least six feet away.
        I’m not shaking hands now, or giving high fives
        to try to make sure everybody survives.
        I’m wearing a face mask and gloves and a gown.
        I’m staying at home. I’m not out on the town.
        I’m washing my hands every hour or two,
        because I’m convinced it’s the right thing to do
        since someone at school kissed me right on the cheek
        and gave me a case of the cooties this week.

    Hi Katelyn. You have to write your own poems on the Poetry Zone. And accepting other people’s praise is very naughty.
