Lockdown Freedom Sick of this depression And feeling so fed up This lockdown hasn’t helped at all I’d sleep all day and night If only I could Can’t wait till 4th July And we have our own Independence Day So much I’ll want to do by then Sick of being cooped up In this house-sized pen The rest I seek Is not House Arrest But going and doing Something I like best Visiting other places of interest..... Castles, Beaches, Museums, Galleries......... So much out there Has gone to waste But - I’ll be back in a haste Don’t want to be rushed Want to set out at a leisurely pace Don’t want to be pushed No longer a race But to ponder ........ Ponder, to my hearts content Browse and peruse No time to relent My time is mine now Money well spent ! Copyright Kizzy York aka K.J.Oakes June 2nd, 2020
