Hush my dear,
It's been a difficult year...
Who knew 2020 would be the year of fear?
Never knowing what the future might hold
And waiting for this pandemic to unfold. Also trying to do what you have been told.
Wearing a mask, the new norm.
All of the new habits that we had to form.
Keep your distance they say,
When you are not feeling okay.
One day we will look back at this day...
But until then all we can do is HOPE and pray
