More Mausoleum Than Museum... Poem by Shaun Cronick

More Mausoleum Than Museum...

Rating: 5.0


More mausoleum than museum,
For not a soul in sight.
As eerie silence now descends,
As lockdown begins to bite.

Patience is a good virtue,
All play its waiting game.
With honesty being another,
Things never to be the same.

But for now and only now,
Meantime giving up its ghost.
A museum reposed in quietude,
A museum people miss the most.

It's such a sad state of affairs in the U.K currently. Your poignant poem really captures this mood Shaun. It's definitely a fading sense of normality inspired five from me.
