Keeping It Real
"One day I woke up to a world of topsy-turvy
one minute sharing a meal and hugging my kids
and the next, keeping my distance with a masked smile"
I believe that tomorrow was never ours
and that hope is the rafter that keeps us afloat
I believe that this pandemic has changed our attitude
and given us a chance to realize how precious life is
I believe that if we persevere and work together
we can find a solution to this dilemma
I believe government is doing the best it can
we can't slap our leaders, if we need their hand
I believe in miracles, especially in these difficult times
one day can make a difference
I believe that mountains can crumble and so can people
but if we fight the good fight, we can win
I believe in good old fashioned courage
putting a little water in our wineglass
I believe we owe it to ourselves and to our loved ones
to continue to do all that we can, to stay healthy and alive.
