A Short Poem on the Coronavirus

Ester Alves

Updated: Nov 16, 2021

A lot of New Year resolutions were made

But unfortunately, COVID came, causing a lot of despair

Lots of people died, everyone became afraid

It could be that the virus is even in the air


The best way to fight the virus was the quarantine

So at first, people would rarely go outside

Only for essential activities, wearing a mask all the time

And with our hands always sanitized


The virus affected even our mind,

It isn’t good for our mental health to be confined.

People became very anxious and stressed,

And a lot of school work made us feel overwhelmed.


Now, after six months, people are being “freed”

Beaches are still forbidden, but we can go shopping at least

Things are not perfect yet, but I can say I’m relieved.

My worries and fears are not gone, but they’ve become weak.
