Covid Poems FINAL

On bad days we have lost a colleague or two, from what seemed at
first like a dose of the flu
But this awful disease has claimed too many lives, brothers and
sisters, husbands and wives.
When will it end, will life ever be the same? we don’t have the
answers yet, oh what a shame
So for now we continue to fight in this war, against another virus
we have no vaccine for.
As more days go by we have time to reflect, what will we remember
or what have we missed?
Of times without loved ones we miss them so much, the shopping,
the freedom, or some jobs been lost.
The lessons we learnt about every day life, the things most
important to husbands and wives.
One things for sure when the virus has gone, these days we
remember like none gone before.
Those things we hold precious and just take for granted, our
freedom to go wherever we wanted,
We may have a long wait until we can fly, so just be content now to
go for a drive.
One day when it’s over and we have stories to tell, how we all helped
each other during this difficult spell
So just keep on going, keep positive, keep well, and all stick
together to do what you do well.​
