2020

The year of 2020 has come to an end.  
It has been a rough one for sure 
Covid-19 caused a problem for most. 
A virus without a cure 

Early on in the year we all had hope 
of what this year would bring 
When you could go to church if you chose 
and heard the school bells ring 

Hurricanes, floods and tornadoes 
swept across the land 
Protests, riots and looting, 
falsely in the name of justice for a man  

politics this year have been
 a nightmare and a joke 
Politicians doing underhanded things 
trying to persuade the vote 

Our country was locked down this year. 
Many businesses had to close. 
Many different places require 
a mask covering your mouth and nose 

Things are so much different now. 
Things have Changed a lot in one short year 
During these uncertain times 
Our future seems quite unclear 

2021 gives us all a chance 
to start this year anew 
My hope and prayer this year will be 
that it's the best one yet for you.
