Adjustments

Keeping my distance Not because I am anti-social When was last time I shook your hand It is no longer natural

Limiting to a small social circle I know whom I met In order to keep each other safe We rarely meet up for same reason

Avoiding certain activities To reduce contacts in crowded places From walking in narrow pathways To soaking in festivities

Cutting back on regular meet-up Fewer lunches to celebrate birthdays Only after we have our vaccination jabs It is only happening now.

Posting more on social media Reaching out virtually WhatsApp groups are active with updates Relief to know you are responding

Adjusting to restrictions Cannot leave home without face mask Counting the number when we meet And keeping a physical distance
