POEM
The Lockdown By Ben Sanford (age 14) Families are together for twelve weeks, And just staying at home is quite bleak, Boris shut down the schools, And being 2m apart seems so cruel.
My birthday did make me sad, But I got a Nintendo Switch so that wasn’t so bad! I also had Mr Pizza, With Chocolate cake, much sweeter.
We knew that schoolwork would be online, Piles of it sometimes grew up to nine! Now we are working on “teams”, Its so bad, and “connect” appears in my dreams!
Whether it’s doing some baking, Or gardening which can be aching! From feeding the ducks, To playing Just Dance which is deluxe!
Some days we go out for sunny walks, I try to get a tan at sweet 4 o’clock. Mum rustles up the barbeques, I have even painted a picture of Ewes!
But we will be back in September, This summer will be something to remember, It has been really tough, But we will be together again soon enough. 43
