Justin Savoy's Quarantined Poetry

Haiku #1: Stocking Up

Headed to Walmart

Where is the toilet paper?

“Sold out,” the sign says.

Haiku #2: What to Watch?

Open up Netflix

Looking for a show to watch,

So many options!

Haiku #3: Dusting Off a Book

Got nothing to do?

Find some books for you to read

You won’t regret it!

Haiku #4: Turn on the Stove

Don’t know how to cook?

Now is a great time to learn

Practice makes perfect!

Haiku #5: Wellness Walk

Sick of staying home?

Try going for a nice walk,

Get rid of your stress.

Acrostic Poem: The Struggling Student

Quickly getting ready for my class at noon

Urgently looking for my laptop

Applauding myself for my excellent hiding skills

Realizing that I left it in my backpack

Afraid that I forgot to charge it last night

Noontime is approaching at an alarming rate

Throwing myself down the stairs

Inches away from my backpack

Noticing that today is Saturday

Everyone’s done that before… right?
