You probably already know that haiku is a Japanese form of poetry with three lines:
First line is 5 syllables.
Second line is 7 syllables.
Third line is 5 syllables.
This challenge is to write a haiku (or many) that expresses what you're going through during this coronavirus crisis.
Here's mine:
Painted my nails blue,
Toenails painted bright yellow.
I'm 73 and bored.

Hope you'll add yours!!
