A2Z April Challenge D is for Distancing

Lonely plastic chairs
Waiting for human to come
Share their spicy news
They love to hear the stories of women who would come every evening for a fresh air.
It is interesting
while they chat about envy, hate, jealousy, love
"I have a new recipe
Of a chocolate cake" boasts one woman
Tell, tell me the recipe" says the other woman while she hugs the arm of the chair.
Some evenings there is a chat about TV programs new.
They talk about the actors as if they were related too
Best evenings are those when they have conflicting discussions at a high pitch tone and they walk away in anger, dropping the chair on its knees.
Lately there has been none
closer to them.
Lonely chairs
They sit in utter gloom,
side by side,
some distant apart,
Awaiting for somebody to sit in their lap
They see the residents
Drive away in fancy cars and return with grocery shopping bags
Nobody comes closer
Everybody ignore them
None have come to tell them the stories of Covid19
They sit idle, bored wondering
when the social distance
is likely to end
