The Heroes
Supermarkets

Dear supermarket workers,

Thank you.
For putting up with this epidemic enough to keep us eating.
It must be hard having to leave your bubble
To sort out food fights
And toilet paper turmoil
And disinfectant dramas
And rationing rules
Keeping up with ever-changing regulations
Not knowing if the people who visit your store are sick
Or if you might get sick
Or what will happen next
You soldier on for the greater good
Spending your days on the front line
In the war against Covid-19
You are the everyday heroes
And on behalf of the people in my isolation bubble I say
Thank you.

Yours sincerely
