Lockdown-Inspired Poetry
Back in July 2020 the Covid-19 lockdown was relatively fresh but it was real enough to inspire one of our members to write a poem about what life had become. Bob Horne shared his poetry with us and we found it unanimously moving:
We’ve been to the club,
Because we are family, and we will obey.
Bob’s words are still powerful months later, as we all still wait patiently to come together again. In the meantime if you find that writing – poetry or otherwise – has helped you to work through your feelings and experiences over the last year or so, please do consider sharing it with us so we can publish it here.
We’d love to hear from you on info@CroydonVision.org.uk
After all sharing words and feelings is one of the surest ways we have of feeling closer to each other as we remain socially distanced. Thank you.
