Goodbye 2020
We wave goodbye, one last time, emotion grand and high.
Feeling days ticking down, nary an eye is dry.
Dodge the door, it could attack, a right malicious ride.
Careful of the swing back now, just take it all in stride.
When first you came, we held our breath, for how bad could you be?
It didn’t take us very long, before we all could see.
You stole our breath and innocence, our health, our means, our ends.
And left us isolated from our family and friends.
We thought that you would never go, the visit quite unending.
You wore out every welcome here, we find ourselves defending.
And now we see the end in sight, it fills us all with cheer.
Our spirits rise, we see you out, you vile, vile year.
Goodbye 2020.
