THE UPSIDE OF LOCKDOWN

I really did not know how bad it was Till lockdown came and forced a change of scene. Then aircraft contrails stop scarring the sky And rumbling roar above then went away Along with that rage from the race track road. Less diesel fume and foul soot we inhaled. The feeling of wellbeing had then returned As man’s sad storm then fell into a lull. Once more our vital air was sweet and clean As precious planet then pollution free. I really did not know how bad it was Till lockdown came and forced a change of scene.
