the 10 of 12 given words:
distance face lock restricts hands
home hug calls count times

peering intently towards the distance
with the faraway look face quizzical
lockdown blues to restrict movements
hands gripped hard at a barrier baffled

home bound but vying for the friends
missed the playground with lots of laughter
but to hug gramps is strictly forbidden
calls to vulnerable oldies count better

keeping social distance is best remedy
times of personal sacrifice to be instilled
brave front liners bear the brunt initially
but for life should not be at a stand-still
