Sonnet: Quarantine So Bad?
I have to say Tomatoes that I really like Lady Penelope’s take on this. There are definitely positives to having to Quarantine as the dear Lady points that out in this week’s Sonnet from Suburbia, “Quarantine So Bad?”
Quarantine So Bad?
Admit it, was the quarantine so bad?
Just think of all the hours that we saved
on lunches we all wished we’d never had,
occasions when we could have misbehaved.
The social obligations that we missed
were no hardship for me, I’ll tell you that!
And cheeks that I would rather not have kissed
did not present themselves. No fallow chat!
There were some times when my own solitude
did overwhelm me in my living room.
Was easy to ramp up my attitude
and find a willing victim out on Zoom.
‘though quarantine for most was quite the bummer
I wished that it had lasted one more summer!
The tomato behind The Three Tomatoes.
Cheryl Benton, aka the “head tomato” is founder and publisher of The Three Tomatoes, a digital lifestyle magazine for “women who aren’t kids”. Having lived and worked for many years in New York City, the land of size zero twenty-somethings, she was truly starting to feel like an invisible woman. She created The Three Tomatoes just for the fun of it as the antidote for invisibility and sent it to 60 friends. Today she has thousands of friends and is chief cheerleader for smart, savvy women who want to live their lives fully at every age and every stage. She is the author of the novel, "Can You See Us Now?" and co-author of a humorous books of quips, "Martini Wisdom." Because she's lived a long time, her full bio won't fit here.
