Cherry and Lilac

This is a year of drastic change
Forgive the pun, it's passing strange!
When people find themselves 'enclosed'
There's less need to wear smart clothes.

At home indeed, not many will
Track bottoms seem to fit the bill
Pyjamas stay a cosy fit
As beer and chocolate do their bit!

Not all are lazy; we can run
Do yoga, or gym in the sun
Or maybe bike to shopping street
Ignoring those we chance to meet!

Our busy lives had lost the plot
So plants remind us what is what
Cherry blossoms catch our gaze
Lilacs burst forth and amaze!

Life is roundabouts and swings
Mother Nature tells us things;
The message echoes loud and clear:
We're guests, not masters, of our Sphere!
