i want my nature back

suddenly people

are enjoying nature,
out and about pointing at
squirrels

in the trees. holding
hands
and walking slowly
down the path.

they are
in my way.

this was my trail
before the virus crisis,

my wooded path. my waterfall
and lake.

go back home, go inside,

why now
with these long walks
and bike rides.

it used to be so peaceful
and quiet,
but not anymore.

all this jibber jabbing,
strollers
and skate boards.

I want my nature back.
