Living In the Midst of the Now
This year has changed all our lives
Covid 19 has came into full effect
so many lives lost as well as damaged
it can be in the air so hard to detect
Speaking personally it's brought calm
to still myself realise this is real
normal may never be the same again
prepare oneself for could take a long heal
Positively I've read so many books
more than I usually do, such a joy
tried to walk each day when I can
the air seems clearer, know the plan
But it's saddened me by attitudes
not taking this pandemic serious enough
the young think they can't be caught
ignoring social distance calling it bluff
No matter the rules people don't like
this is serious stuff you mustn't ignore
all of the world it's hit none escaped
looking for the key to open a door
Pray that people could just see
this is danger so make sure it's safe
one day it'll go away so obey
it makes sense to do right and agree
