I am an old man
Each day sheltering in place
The damage is done.
Early morning walks
Many new walkers pass by
No stopping to talk.
Coronavirus
Still on a stubborn plateau
We fight off the stress.
In a new normal
Public places restricted
Times are abnormal.
Zoom and Facetime
The way we stay connected
Your time is my time.

see this picture
a pandemic picture
not really
it’s not clear
so little information
not able to reason
observation void
or is it
some will reason
based on blind faith
indifferent to the truth
yet people believe
it is the truth
rather than asking
is it the truth
coronavirus exist
fed on indifference
to the truth
prompt with careless moods
minus the circumstances
left to question
only at death
a pandemic where
warriors stand
and truth died in
presidential updates
no longer accepting
only asking
is it the truth

In this age of coronavirus, we are discovering joy in the minuscule and routine.
I believe a leaf of grass is no less than the journeywork of the stars,
And the pismire is equally perfect, and a grain of sand, and the egg of the wren,
And the tree-toad is a chef-d’oeuvre for the highest,
And the running blackberry would adorn the parlors of heaven,
And the narrowest hinge in my hand puts to scorn all machinery,
And the cow crunching with depressed head surpasses any statue,
And a mouse is miracle enough to stagger sextillions of infidels,
And I could come every afternoon of my life to look at the farmer’s girl boiling her iron tea-kettle and baking shortcake.

Two pre-schoolers live with their parents at the end of Tanuri Drive making it easy to put lessons on the street.
Everyone in Tanuri Ridge is now sheltered at home. There are only 72 homes in our community
where many of us are spending some of our days walking the streets of Tanuri Ridge.
Some of us wander off down by the Tanque Verde Wash.
Stay safe, everyone.

SCVN President, Phil Bentley Teaching a Kindergarten Class In Sabino Canyon — Image by kenne
As Sabino Canyon Volunteer Naturalists (SCVN), we are not currently offering nature education programs to school children and the public because of the coronavirus. However, individually we are in the canyon, encouraging everyone to spend time outdoors.
This morning naturalist Nancy Wilkenson, who teaches in our kindergarten program, did this short virtual nature walk encouraging people to come out to the canyon. Nature is always open!

How about a little hug
And kiss, my dear?
Oh no, we have to be careful
not to get the coronavirus.
