Remember the Lockdown : 2020
Remember the Lockdown 2020
Empty quiet city streets
Closed doors and shopping centres
When we didn’t rush off to the supermarket
Or the library or the shops
When we walked and smiled at a distance
Following the two metre rule.
When we planned our shopping and meals ahead of time
And who would cook them.
When we rested weary with changes
And zoomed into other people’s lives and rooms
And at the end
When time
Which had seemed to go so slowly
Coming out of lockdown
Seemed so fast
We wanted to stay home
Cosy, secure and rest again
This time without the worry
