2020, Acrostically

Vaccines are a miracle and scientists are fab,

And I’m so grateful they exist,

Create things in the lab, 

Care for them we all should do and give them what they need,

I for one shall sing their praise,

No doubt that they should lead,

Experiments just need time to work and data must be checked,

So when they tell you something’s good,

We must trust, not suspect,

Oh also while I have you here, I have one thing to ask,

Read please each line’s first letter, and,

Keep calm, and wear your mask.

World Mental Health Day

World Mental Health Day

There’s lots of stuff goin’ on up there,

We need to treat it well,

Our minds the soul of who we are,

My plan for this, I’ll spell,

See life is tough, we all have doubts,

And questions ‘bout our worth,

We wonder if we’re good enough,

And what’s our place on Earth,

To me, our role is to spread light,

And help each other out,

Especially when they’re feeling low,

And need some help to shout,

You are enough just as you are,

But if you’re feeling low,

Let’s talk some more, I’d like to help,

And help your sweet smile grow,

Be kind to all that you should meet,

And be their beam of light,

Today you might be all they need

To help them see their might.

Person, Woman, Man, Camera, TV

Person, Woman, Man, Camera, TV

It’s so great to be a person,

We can bring so much joy,

To do good things here in this world,

If you’re a girl or boy,

And let’s say you’re a woman,

The trials that you go through,

To fight against those evil views,

Which fail to value you,

I write this as a modern man,

‘Least this I try to be,

To speak against misogyny,

Wherever it I see,

When it looks to the camera,

To speak its evil hate,

We must all do one more good deed,

As these carry more weight,

For now it’s there on the TV,

His smirking, harmful face,

So make sure when November comes,

It did not win the race.

Wind

Wind

We’re sculpted by her forces,

Her brushes paint with time,

She blows against the rocks so hard,

But makes a scene sublime,

And other times she’s gentle,

Her swaying in the trees,

To listen to her symphony,

Her notes speak through the breeze,

This scene is set before her,

A field of crops and grains,

She blows away the big dark clouds,

And clears away the rains,

And when down by the ocean,

She makes our senses flow,

That unique smell of salted air,

We smile as our cheeks glow,

She also has a cheeky side,

To lift a summer dress,

Oh wind, you’re mother nature’s voice,

I love you more, not less.

Aurora

Aurora

She dances ‘cross the midnight sky

A joy for all to see

She’s high up in the latitudes

Her solar winds run free

Her technicolour rainbow dream

She makes the night sky bright

Reminds us that when things feel dark

There’s always chance for light

Though science has laid her secrets bare

This awe-inspiring art

Her light goes deep inside our souls

And speaks right to our heart

When things feel bleak and monsters talk

This angel pops her mouth

To show us what true beauty means

From north down to the south

So when you need to feel a boost

Of hopes and dreams and love

Just think of the auroras there

A hug sent from above
