Emergence
a poem about coming out of lockdown…
As we emerge from our shells we smell the sweet air We draw in a deep breath after a year of despair Yet despite the darkness, we can now see some hope but going outside may still be a nope. Our brains have been trained to avoid at all costs people and places and all things that cough!
As we adjust to a new way of life we miss what was before but see this as a fresh start as we emerge from a pandemic, not a war. So let us rejoice in all we still have and be proud of ourselves for one and for all and thank the gods that are children are now back to school!
