For the last two years, I’m trapped at home
Unable to get out
This poem is a scream; a shout
Of children so alone!

From windows, I still see the park
Where we used to have fun,
We’d hang out there, we’d chat, we’d run,
Where now, only stray dogs bark.

I know there will be a day,
When we will meet our friends,
And when this pandemic ends,
We will go out and play!
