What day is it?
What time is it?
Where am I?
Where are you?
We're all in lockdown,
Difficult times,
Trying to get through!
How many weeks?
How many more?
I'm doing all I can,
To stay safe & healthy,
For when I meet that man,
Whose picked me up,
Spun me around,
Made me feel alive,
Such crazy times
We're living in,
When will that day arrive?

I'm looking out the window, clouds and birds go by
I haven't seen a plane for days, they're not allowed to fly
People are in hiding, afraid to go outside
I took a walk for excercise, not a soul in sight
I miss the friendly faces, the hugs and how are you?
The sadness of so many lost, it breaks my heart in two
But the country came together,
To make a better place
So when we all come out of this, we'll be proud of the human race

My garden is so quiet but for the faint buzz of a bee
A bluetit lands upon the bush just to the left of me
It doesn't seem to be afraid so young just from the nest
It sits and fluffs its feathers and puffs out its little chest
The sun is shining down on us we both sit here in peace
The world outside my garden still not safe from this disease

Many weeks of lockdown are they coming to an end
When we get back to society will we ever comprehend
How these past months have changed us and what we have achieved
The world has pulled together could we ever have believed
That so many nations suffered and we grieved together as one
A future history subject when this is all over and done
This truly is another war, a fight we all endure
Many lives being lost as we still fight to find a cure
May the 8th marked VE Day 75 years since the 2nd world war
And we still found time to commemorate because everyone is worth fighting for
