I wrote this about Covid 19 and the lockdown
Virus
No dining no cinema no going out
No football or festivals
No getting about
No meeting a colleague no hugging a friend
No pubs no clubs gatherings
When will we see the end?
This virus has us locked inside
Us over seventies
All have to hide
But its not all gloom it wont last forever
Being kept apart
Has brought us all together
We are Zooming and Skyping like never before
The community spirit
Is just like in the war
There have been front room festivals
And internet plays
Happy reminders of better days
So we wont give up we’ll stay in lock down
Until this damn virus
Is no longer around
If we believe in our hearts it wont be long
We will beat this pandemic
And see it gone
So lets drink a toast to the NHS crew
And to postmen and drivers
Who bring deliveries to you
To bus drivers and policemen and firemen too
Who all risk their lives
For me and for you
So lets all stand firm and never give in
Then the war on this virus
We will surely win
I know we can beat it if we stay strong
And we will see the day
When forever its gone
