The year 2020

The year 2020 will be a one we all remember 
When mysteriously something sinister stirred from in the past December
They said it came from overseas and out of the blue but noone knew the strength of suffering this disease would do
Well the western world got wind of this pandemic plight as Chinese columnist’s and broadcasters were printing their fight
Too many poor people were sadly dying with this spreading infection that was rapidly multiplying

So this virus got a name they called it Corvid-19 coz that was the year it was discovered if you know what I mean
Each and every single human soul knew of this word
There was no way to avoid Corvid-19, it was constantly heard
An infection like no other the Governments would say
And the only thing that we could do was to keep out of each other’s way
So they drummed into us “Isolation for the nation” 
This is our essential contribution to finally find normalisation

Now at this moment in time it is the onset of May
Whilst people are social distancing the alienation is dismay
Most shops are shut apart from the the ones that sell food where there are limited access as social distancing is understood
But online shopping is available if you can find a slot and this is worthwhile coz they deliver to your spot
On the whole life passes at a slower 
pace not like before it all happened when everything was just a race

Well as I already mentioned it’s been from December until now but scientists are working overtime to create a vaccine somehow
This sounds like the only solution to rid this nightmare and provide a positive resolution
So as we while away the long isolation hours trying our hands at household chores and giving TLC to the flowers
Home improvements are at last getting done as the weather has been glorious so we are thankful for the sun

Everyone has knuckled down and made the best of a bad situation
But no doubt there will be rises in depression from the sheer frustration
Mind you we have the best NHS in the world as their heartfelt dedication helping other’s does unfurled
On a Thursday night at 8 pm and coz we all can
A nation applauds their appreciation clapping and banging on a pan
Our keyworkers are doing a marvellous job keeping the nation going as we await our fate in these days of uncertainties and the no way of knowing
