Thanks, Val. :) 

By mid-May I should have full protection. Which will mean I could have real human contact again. :yes:

Fingers crossed you don't have to wait too long... :hug:

I look forward to getting my first shot, even though the second won't come till four months later. Canada is the only country doing this long delay between shots. Timely and hope-filled poem, buddy. :hug:

Cheers, Gary! :hug:

I know it doesn't totally help, but I can't help but feeling for the people in those countries in the world where vaccinations haven't even really started yet...

Thank goodness the vaccine is becoming available to more people. I got the Pfizer too. Good luck with the sore arm :hug:

Haikus are hard. You’re doing great. Glad I discovered this set you are creating.

Thanks for the kind words. :thumbup:

As for the sore arm...

I didn't actually have one.

Although some tell me the second shot can often be worse than the first. Possibly because the first one has trained the body how to react... :unsure2:

I enjoyed this vaccination haiku. I'm glad you were able to get one.

Thanks, Parker!  :thumbup:

I initially had the first and third lines reversed; but decided it fits the haiku format better the way I finally wrote it .

Pharma poetry! And for a good cause, too! 🙂

Big pharma are not necessarily as bad as people like to paint them at times. :unsure2:
