1st Place Monty Year 1
How Covid Hit The Air
Now here’s my story, all about COVID,
My life got tipped upside down,
I would like to take a minute, just sit right there,
I’ll tell you how covid hit the air,
I’m in North London, and schools got shut down,
I miss my friends and I want COVID to drown,
My friends are so sad and we miss each other,
I promise when this is all over, we won’t be much bother.
My Mum, Dad, sister, brother all living in one room,
Everyone thinks its fun to play games and reconnect on Zoom,
But I miss laughing out loud and singing birthday cheers,
It’s not the same without your peers.
The darkest days are over and Spring is here,
We’ve received our first testing kits and I hope they’re all clear.
Starting back at school will be so much fun,
I’m going to skip, hop, dance and run, run, run!
