New Year Poem by Mai Murphy Venn

So, swiftly, swings, smoothly, the New Year in.
Whatever joys or sorrow's will it bring?
The pandemic now has us in its brace
While new vaccines enter into the race

Thousands of loved ones have endured the pain
As it shifts, it can convert into a mega strain
The old, the young, the in-between, is all the same
Imprisoned in lockdown, preventing the spread was the aim

Christmas time was so sad, parted from our Mam & Dad
New Year' to was lonely. our, missing both of you
Celebrate, the bran New Year 2021 is finally here at last,
Let us hope that the corvid 19 will die and fade into the past
