Countless people were diagnosed with this infectious disease
Where airborne particles caused difficulty to breathe.
The virus that spread with such swift velocity
Caused a world to shut down with complete ferocity.
Optimistic and obedient was all we could be
As we followed the tedious rules of quarantine.
Masks, that became an irritating fashion,
Were an essential attempt at a mass prevention action.
Most of us in a bubble, while many tried to breathe through a tube.
Vital workers on the frontline with everything to prove.
Vigilant efforts at developing an unknown vaccine
were hurriedly made with no studies to show any long term venene.
Yet scientists persisted and we would all endure
the benefits and consequences of a potentially radical cure.
Inevitably, the death toll rose higher and higher.
Feelings of despair surmounted a so-called healthcare fire.
The uncertainty of fate became normal in an overwhelming situation.
Covid, a societal thief, ventured to collapse our nation.
Dedication and love with the courage to support,
Is what was needed to regain, regrow and report
a stronger community with a greater sense of awareness.
Covid is still around and probably here to stay, but in all fairness….
So are we.
