Lockdown. Lockdown. Lockdown. We’re all huddled in a corner, eyes squeezed tight. The lights are all off, we’re deprived of the light. Maybe if I keep my eyes closed it will all go away. There is so much fear that words can’t even convey. Lockdown. Lockdown. Lockdown. My heart is pounding in my chest, my...

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...

The Avian Flu is over. Time for a change of scene. The barn doors slowly open. We feel comforted by the green. Us chicks will have adventures. We'll slurp some slimy things. We'll cluck along in unison With the choir that has wings. We'll nestle in long chunks of grass. Shadows will cool us in the sun. Each day will be a hen party And we'll...

I wrote this when my mother was alive and added the last verse when she died. Covid was a terrible time for all. My mother suffered a second sons death during Covid.

Moon isn't different; same do sun. But we all for peace get the streets shun. Weather caress us so well. Should earth not be healed; won't all wish hell? The pleasure taken indoor is off beast mode, More than necessity could brace, all calm abode. Its insane how the crueler widens each moment. Yes! The...

Thinking of you The world outside Waiting for the lockdown To be lifted The lonely moon, The stars and the clouds Know my hearts Yesterday suddenly everything Come to a standstill Less night back man Less morning jogger Less cars and pedestrians Less hustles and bustles But lights and humps Can never block us Going out is a song Singing rhythms of life Road is a river Flowing out...

The news spreads We're going to open borders Pandemic becomes epidemic Some people applauded and excited Feel free to go Dine-in Travel Gathering Some people anxious and restless Start to appeal,whine Complain,criticise,satire At a loss It pays to be put in a double squeeze But epidemic index up Some people are unprepared Starkly silent Start to leave it to chance Resigned to fate But still have to make ends meet Economic recession kills Famine kills Prolonged...

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...

God is sovereign over pandemic Vanquishing miserable health-crises He knows what is best, blessing wellness-zest As His people trust His omnipotence. With God’s omniscience in nature’s event He’s not surprised with the COVID-19 Allowing such record in history Though causing community lockdown angst. God for sure knows varied government bans Cognizant of every health protocol Amidst public safety enforcement rules Giving guidance to each one who...

Endless rain and black clouds Stretching as far as the eyes can see So many weekends ruined Another new kind of lockdown It must be some kind of joke With the way this year has been It must be Nature's warped humour We know it really is not funny But we will survive this too And maybe we will laugh at the end of...

I Times when one had right to stop one's Beloved From leaving on a trip, urgent but uncovered For these times. Omicron has made Africa notorious But Level 1 Lockdown prevents me being imperious So, freedom still reigns in my home, we say goodbye Mind flies ahead to the return (Quarantine or Reunite)? II Traveling mercies, LORD, for my Beloved; all who...
