Page 30 - Everyone a Writer Anthology 2021

Covid is going nowhere, it’s like a fun fair.
So many ups and downs, we are in a war just clinging on.
How are we going to survive? We have no grit, we have no fight,
The world is so scary, you might be alive in the day and gone in the night .
It’s unpredictable, we didn’t know Covid was coming
It was unseeable
The world we live in is miserable,
So many racists on this planet, it’s despicable
We are destroying the world and it’s not fixable.

There are people on this world like Sir Captain Tom
Raising millions of pounds
But there are millions of people dragging it down
They weigh a metric tonne,
Here is a good Samaritan Marcus Rashford
He is the reason the people are eating when they cant afford it
All it took was hard work, a voice and dedication
A simple combination, the next generation getting their education
We’re in a tough place, it’s a bad situation
He is one of the reasons why I love our country,
Working hard for our nation, it’s amazing,
Different people will learn from him, there will be a continuation
He works so hard he deserves a nomination

Everyone can make a change, it takes determination
We can stop terrible things like discrimination and segregation.
We are all different, everyone needs to think and listen
If we work together there will be a change and it’s
This year the world stopped due to Covid, let’s write it down and get it noted
We didn’t see our family our Christmas, we shouldn’t forget about 2020
Let us remember that we are equal
And I want too see my family in December
And do a full year of school and start in September.
