Lockdown Poem Esme  

Lockdown with family- senses writingpiece 

By Esme W 6A

When I am in lockdown with my family I see, 

Daniel Andrews always on the TV, 

My mum doing her online pilates,  

Lots of faces on group calls. 

When I am in lockdown with my family I hear,  

The kettle constantly boiling, 

The crashing of plates being loaded into the dish washer, 

My sister having a meltdown because her phones died,  

Lots of ladies laughing when my mum is on a call, 

Friends in class always chatting. 

When I am in lockdown with my family I smell, 

Glen-20 being sprayed all over the house, 

Soup being cooked in the slow cooker, 

My dad's horrible sweat when we do my sisters workout. 

When I am in lockdown with my family I feel, 

My overworked keyboard on my finger tips as I do work, 

The heat of the sun through my bedroom window, 

My laptop heating up because it's always on. 

When I am in lockdown with my family I taste, 

To many homecooked meals such as, 

Chicken and chips, 

Curry and,  

Chicken Wraps and finally, 

The salty air when we go for our hours walk by the beach.
