No Halloween or Christmas 🎄 

This year has been a right off
It’s been a strange old time
Nothing has been normal
Though, we shouldn’t really whine


We’ve stayed indoors for ages
Doing as we’ve been told
At first it wasn’t difficult - 
And then it takes a hold


We cancelled all our birthdays 🎂 
Special occasions all delayed 
Decorated every room
In anything that’s grey


Running out of projects 
Now what ever shall we do?
The flowers have all gone over
Looking depressingly subdued  


Halloween 🎃 is coming 
Traditionally trick or treat
No children dressing up this year
Just soulless empty streets


Christmas could be cancelled 
Unless a cure is found for all
Wouldn’t that be fantastic news!
If normality was restored


So, we’ll get those decorations out
The tree 🌲 up with pretty lighting 
and celebrate those New Year chimes
Because 2021 looks sooo much more inviting
