Christmas 2020

what a year this has been 

Christmas is going to be strange

for Coronavirus is everywhere

celebrations will have to change

for this year will be a lot quieter

as only a few guests can be invited

presents will be fewer than last year

but at least we can stay united

staying at home means virtual chats

all those cancelled parties is hard

no fireworks and merry pub crawls

town centre is like a graveyard

will Santa and the festive elves

have to wash their hands on arrival

wearing their bright coloured masks

we must all protect our survival

no cuddles with the grandparents 

or going round the neighbours for a chat

or visiting friends in other towns

just movies on TV while cuddling the cat!

it`s going to be a weird festive season

stuck in doors with just the family

but thats okay with me right now

we`ll stay safe trying to keep our sanity!
