Poem for Lockdown

by Bronte Gadon

My bubble was my room it was cozy and fun

I bought a mirror so i could see who was number one

Because of lockdown sometimes I overslept

I missed my friends and it was alone that I wept

Zoom was cool i liked using the greenscreen

but at school I learn better that’s what I have seen

I am better prepared to learn independently

it takes a lot motivation and it has to come from me

college will be similar with no one telling me what to do

every choice you must choose it’s all up to you

Returning back to school I feel a little unsure

about what is to happen and what I will endure

I hope this doesn’t affect my exams or my grades

and my artwork for art is lacking some shades

To deal with changes I don’t really have a plan

I’m just trying to catch up with schoolwork as fast as I can

but as things swing back into it I think I will find

it will be pretty easy to get back to the grind

Shout out to mum and shout out to dad

shout out to Kimmy the best aunt I ever had

thank you for feeding me and helping with school

and not being too strict making unreasonable rules

thanks to my friends who let me give them a rant

I really appreciate it and know I don’t take you for grant-ed.
