2020 To 2021

 
Darn 2020 says it all, 
We will remember so -
This year forced our lives to stall,
The way we didn’t know. 

Pandemic films we watched in awe, 
On Netflix, Crave or Prime,
This year we lived through what we saw, 
Off screen, in real time. 

Masked or at home, sad and withdrawn, 
We couldn’t help but dwell 
On the inflictions cast upon 
By 2020’s spell. 

I drink this New Year’s Eve champagne 
To solve the mystery. 
This viral culprit we’ll detain 
Only in history!
