Everything Will Be Alright

When you haven’t ventured out for months
And you haven’t seen a friendly face
When the winter weather has been harsh
And you haven’t left your local place

When you have spent a year in lockdown
And you don’t recognise new normal ways 
When you fear life will never be the same
And you’re on the path to brighter days

When you are nearer the end than the start
And the finish line is just out of sight 
When we need to tell ourselves to just hold on 
And everything will be alright

Thank you Keith, A Girl and Stephen G for the likes and kind comments. Thanks to everyone else for the likes. I wasn't sure about this one, I wrote it quickly this morning and thought it should have another verse. Perhaps I will leave it as it is.

Reminds me of the Coldplay song „Everything’s not lost” . One of my favourites.

Thanks for the injection of positivity.

Julie,
Thank you for this poem of optimism which is sorely needed at this time as we all long for better days and a return to normality.
Thanks
Keith
