CELIA'S POEMS

            No 116  July 11

            I feel to have mixed feelings,

            The lockdown we did not expect,

            But after this few days at the caravan,

            I think people are showing respect.

            Respect for all the businesses,

            That have put in so much time,

            To try to get our lives back,

            They’ve certainly helped mine.

            2020 has been dreadful,

            We feel we’ve been at war,

            We’ve been dealing with the unknown,

            Possibly an enemy much harder than before.

            We all think it’s still out there,

            So the rules we’ve got to keep,

            So show respect for others,

            The benefits we will reap.

            Of course we have worn our masks,

            This rule we must accept,

            And of course social distancing,

            We’ve all got to respect.

            These last few days whilst away,

            Things are feeling much more normal,

            We’ve done everything we wanted,

            Gone about it quite informal,

            So if you have not ventured out,

            You’ve got to make that move,

            And get your life back on track,

            I’m sure you will approve.

            I’m trying to reassure you,

            Not to be afraid,

            Things are getting back to normal,
