LOCK-DOWN
By Charlie
My street was as quiet as a mouse.
Just me in my little house.
Going for a walk once a day.
Down the nature trail not too far away.
“I’m bored I say”.
“I’m sorry they say there’s just no way”.
“Just wait till lock down is over and virus too”.
So, we just have to wait me and you.
Till lock down is over for another day.
All we can do is listen to what they say.
“Stay inside for another day”.
“Why though” I say.
“To keep everyone away”.
“Stay inside stay safe and self-isolate”.
“Till when we don’t know the exact date”.
My street was as quiet as a mouse.
Just me in my little house.
