COVID-19

I am Genia Ji. I’m 8 years old this year, l lived in HK for 7 years and I moved to Shanghai this year. I wrote this poem because I don’t like lock downs. Sometimes, I like fake lockdowns. We practiced it in school, but in the real lockdown, I feel lonely. It’s just a normal day, and then everybody went home. We don’t know why, but we know, it is the right thing to do. If we go outside of our building - there are invisible fences everywhere. The swings are lonely. The slides have no one to play with. Sometimes, at home we feel lonely, livid, blue or delighted and all these feelings are okay. We all patiently wait for that day, the day we can play with our friends and family, the day everything is normal again.😭 🫥
