Reflecting On the Year 2020

It’s hard to believe the year has arrived When everything points to destruction People cannot muster a way to revive Because of virus and fear of obstruction People sporting masks and rubber gloves Showing the world that a virus kills nerve Making others unable to fulfill their loves Allowing most the answers in all they serve The impossible moment comes as we risk Taking on the dangers of coming into contact With a disease that leaves one feeling brisk Because of the way that it seems to attack Wherever you go there is little doubt inside That this year has brought something to life Malady that is so strong from it we cannot hide Making us aware that we have certain strife This is the time that we will always recall As the day of disease from which we run Hoping to learn to let go of what we appall Having faith that 2020 marks the virus done 2020 Poetry Contest Sponsored by: craig cornish May 23, 2020
