A Better Tomorrow

With all the restrictions I feel cooped up 
I wish I was a bird, then I  could fly 
they ask us to stay home like good pups 
then tell us 'wear a mask' or you will die  

I know that if we pool as one we'll win 
although the day feels long if we persist 
we'll finally send  this virus to the bin
so lets keep hope alive and co-exist 

we've seen this battle many times before 
and every time we won with banners high 
contagions can be beat so let us roar 
like lions braving all and, lets comply 

with the help of God we can over come 
even if we  march, to a different drum.
