Weirdest Year In My 68 Years

2020 weirdest year in my sixty-eight years
I was glad my mother’s memorial service was Feb second
Because the next month we would have had to limit to ten
And we had over seventy attend

2020 strangest election in the history of US
I cannot ever recall anything like it
I never want to see anything like it again either
I mean EVER

2020 our school shut down for a year
From March 13th to March 8th
The children missed a year
Online school is not the same

2020 Please never repeat yourself
Our morale, and our health cannot take it
This mask-wearing is ridiculous.
I wish people would take precautions.

Very well expressed. All too true. There seems to be no end to this...

I can agree with most of these points here. I hope that our nation soon gets vaccinated as a whole so that we can put the worse behind us. Another one of our church members is in the hospital and the family has been called in. I haven't heard anymore since early this morning so maybe he got better. Thanks for visiting my page. I think I was sick when you put that comment on. Sara

A fitting, realistic look at 2020, the year we all wish wasn't. Good writing, Caren.
