Self Distancing Is Now A Way Of Life. Poem by David Boyce

Self distancing is now a way of life.

Sent into lockdown by the government,
No longer allowed into crowded places,
No kisses or cwtches for a while,
Some not even allowed to see their loved ones faces.

Self distancing is now a way of life,
Children and teachers not allowed into school anymore,
The virus is hitting all parts of life and industry,
With affects right to the countries core.

Many people have had flu type symptoms,
High temperatures, sneezes and coughs,
The graphs shown on tv of the sad death tolls,
Seem to have lots of peaks and troughs.

They say it will all pass soon,
And we can get back to a normal place,
Until that day arrives for all of us,
Be careful and please stay safe!
