Best Poems Written by Lucy Ward

We Will Get By

Keep smiling through these hard times
And keep your head held high
It’s a crazy world right now
But somehow we’ll get by
Think of all the good things
Like not having to wash your hair
Or wear those tight jeans
You really need not care
For no one can judge you when hiding behind a door
Just remember when the video call comes
To keep the camera at the floor
Another thing you could consider
Is practising something new
Like train to be a divorce lawyer 
After this we might need a few
The children will drive us mad 
It’s what they’re here to do
But at least we’re shouting something different
Rather than WHERES YOUR OTHER SHOE
Its ok for the tv phone or iPad to be your new best friend
Among us all 
I’ll bet this is a trend 
One day soon this will all be over
And life once again can move on
We won’t need telling twice
And out the door we’ll be gone
We’ll breathe in the freedom 
And chance to see people again
We won’t take family and friends for granted
We’ll be there just say when
So remember keep smiling 
Keep your head held high
Some good has to come from this
And for sure we will get by
