The New Normal

Masked shoppers shouting hello
Who's that? I don't know
Is this the new normal?

Date nights with netflix
Sharing a bag of sunkist
Is this the new normal?

Al a cart supermarket steak
Not like dining out but still taste great
Is this the new normal?

Planning hols in nearby seaside town
Hoping it don't clash with another lockdown
Is this the new normal?

My wife's new lingerie is stunning
But without my new specs I can see nothing
Is this the new normal?

Hello Gavin … Interesting to write that our new normal will see a different way of life and this is the possibility indeed. I wonder if governments will relinquish the extra power they have gained - thank you Gavin - Lindsay
