Departing 2020
"Threat" is the word that made mothers worry about their child.
Disposable face masks have been our weapon to combat.
The whole quarantine thing tolerates people to be wild.
I got crazy for months at home; I was never like that.
It took several sips of coffee for Dad to realize.
That this year has crippled his pocket yet he stays survive.
Tea parties and schooling are now digitized.
It shifted routines and lifestyles; Thank God I’m alive!
Isolation was the healing to tie up the families’ bond.
It is the greatest magic that the virus has ever done.
We will depart this year together and correspond;
Be vaccinated by faith and hope; we will rise like a sun.
2020 has been the news flash of ups and downs.
We should start to adapt to change and embrace the "new normal".
Let us paint fireworks in the skies with no frowns.
I hope we will live in 2021 like there is nothing but normal.
