This book is a collage of one North American writer's thoughts, feelings, and impressions during the early Covid-19 Pandemic years, 2020 - 2021.

Wistfulness, memories, and laughs became needed antidotes to the madness. Sadly, Covid stays with us, and may slam into our societies again. This book can remain as a remembrance of these times, and a reminder that we can still celebrate life and survive until better days.
