As the days go on there's not much to do,
We try to pass time playing board games like clue,
The air outside has become filled with despair,
But we are coming together and treating others with care.

It is a struggle keeping focus on distance learning,
The school I dreaded is now the place I’m yearning,
It is hard to manage school and home life,
I hate the coronavirus and how it has spread so rife.

We give thanks to medical workers, doctors, and nurses,
They have stayed in the fight as the pandemic worsens,
We also shout out the essential workers like cashiers,
They have shown us perseverance and having no fears.

There is hope in the future that it will end,
But all we can do is hope COVID-19 won’t be a trend,
When this is over I hope humanity will be closer,
We will be united standing shoulder by shoulder.
