New Boston-area sewage samples show record high signs of COVID-19 | Boston.com

Dr. Daniel Kuritzkes, of Brigham and Women’s Hospital, told WCVB NewsCenter 5. “The wastewater tends to precede the number of cases. So if they’re seeing an uptick in the titers in wastewater, I’m quite concerned that in the next week or two we’re going to see a parallel increase in the number of diagnoses.” Source: New Boston-area sewage samples show record high signs of COVID-19 | Boston.com

Somewhere, Someplace

yaskhan

Somewhere between
Aloneness and solitude-
The sound of an ambulance.

ICU
The oxygen
A lifeline.

Primitive night~
The day never 
Prepares you for this.

Lost for words~~
The pause between breaths:
Filled with 
Memories.

Fragments of thoughts;
Caught in the 
Lines of a poem.

The rhythm of 
Falling rain~~
My head fills 
With words.

Somewhere, someplace-
We all dream 
Under the same moon....

No Accident

Lingua: Ex Libris Life

(The Miseducation of America)

It’s no accident, that

You learned about Helen Keller
instead of W.E.B. DuBois, and the Watts and L.A. Riots, but not those in Tulsa or Wilmington; or, that

You learned that George Washington’s dentures were made from wood, rather than the teeth of slaves; or, that

You learned about the New Deal and black ghettos, but never about redlining and Black Wall Street.

It’s no accident, that

You heard and learned about “black on black crime,” but white criminals have never been lumped together and discussed in such terms as their race, creed, color, or gender identity; or, that

You learned about “states rights” as the cause of the Civil War, fought to preserve the Union, but not that slavery was mentioned 80 times in the articles of secession.

It’s no accident, that

Privilege is having history rewritten
so that you don’t have to acknowledge uncomfortable…

A Winter Wonderland

Saania's diary - reflections, learnings, sparkles

This poem recollects some paradisiacal memories from my trip to Rovaniemi (a city in Finland).

I clicked this during the daytime 🧊 ❄️ ⛄️

Scintillating snowflakes
Sprinkling down in the breeze
A white blanket of snow
Covering wintry tall trees

I am out in the wilderness
In the middle of nowhere
Quivering with shivers
From the icy, frosty air

Watching the northern lights
As I look up high
Like streams of emerald
Twirled in the sky

Ribbons of colours
In all shades of blue
Filling the empty sky
With their dazzling hue

I sip hot berry tea
As I drink in haste
Wrapping my fingers around
Enduring the sugary, glacé taste

I close my eyes
Gently as I stand
An empyrean place
A winter wonderland…

-SaaniaSparkle 🧚🏻‍♀️

 

Happy Poetry Month 2020!
