Lockdown Thought — Day 25

Be at home with us in
big signs of love 
and little treats celebrating day 25,
big clamps on criticism 
and little compliments warming our hearts,
big involvement in family 
and little pops of quiet and peace, 
big efforts in cooperation
and little breaks in fresh air,
big fun, laughs and giggles 
and little hugs of encouragement,
big commitment towards stopping the virus
and little pats-on-the-back for doing well,
Risen Christ.
