Shall I compare thee boredom to dark skies?

Yet clouds have silver lining, boredom stays

It is there when the world resumes its cries. 

No matter what happens, the mood still grays


Sometimes, too long the heavy rain will fall

It will become overrun with large dark clouds

And often it would wait for any call

While sitting there, longing for any crowds

 

But when the cloudy skies become more clear

The flowers appear as the lock clicks free

The sounds of talk fill the air with more cheer

As the land outside the house swells with glee


So long as family is near and close

So long the first bloom continues, the rose

The author's comments:

This poem represents the mood as people emerged from the pandemic. It was dark and reflective initially but later became more optimistic as the lockdown ended.

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."

"Though much is taken, much abides; and though we are not now that strength which in old days moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are; one equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield." -Lord Alfred Tennyson
