We Laughed

This poem was written around this time last year.

At the time Christmas 2019 was the last event that many of us had properly seen loved ones before the lockdowns of 2020. At the time everyone was hoping / believed that Christmas 2020 would give us the chance to once again get together. Then Boris made his announcement………….

Whilst I am hoping that Christmas 2021 will be a time that everyone can celebrate with their favourite people, I am also aware that for many life will never be the same again……..

We Laughed

We laughed and sang.

We toasted and cheered.

Welcoming in 2020.

Halfway through this eventful year how will we look back on it?

Children learning at home, everyone hiding away.

The walks, the talks, and the sounds of the birds

Will we just remember the difficult times?

Or the fun times spent with family?
