Perfect eyesight that’s what my brother has,
He says he could be a pilot and all that jazz.

But it’s only vision that’s short-sighted for me,
Life in 2020 I can clearly see.

Coronavirus arrived and changed how we live,
Remain at home was advice the Prime Minister tried to give.

How school changed learning through Teams,
The new norm, my lessons and teachers on screens.

But in all the worry and numbers of deaths the news told us,
Lockdown life was different with less of the fuss.

Appreciating keyworkers and clapping with others,
I spoke more to friends and with my grandmothers.

I discovered my bike and cycling in the wood,
And family walks as the car on the drive it just stood.

My telescope, out of the box it finally came,
The night sky clear, the stars so bright they looked aflame.

Flour, sugar, butter and eggs came out for baking,
A weekly conveyor belt of cakes we were making.

And so we wait for a vaccine to be made,
Hopefully a cure and not just a Band-Aid.

We carry on social distancing and in our school bubble,
Until coronavirus goes and gives us no more trouble.
