Where We're At!

One week to Easter, more doors close

Where this will lead to, Heaven knows!

This is lock-down on long lease!

Frustrations well up, need release…

 

My 'mustn’t grumble’ mantra fails;

We’re on the edge and biting nails

Crime wave on trains! Brand new and scary

We must think twice and stay wary…

 

Is this where we thought we’d be

One year later – on the spree?

Warm rays of sun don’t let us down

But why go shopping in the town?

 

Non-essential shops – on rendezvous?

Who will take a chance? Will you?

This nightmare seems to have no end

Take courage, therefore, my poor friend!
