Lockdown Poem

The lockdown is like a cuddly pet that has gone savage,
Like being an evacuee sent away,
This virus is a wildfire spreading through the jungle 
And social distancing is like dodging fireballs,
I feel like I must have been naughty and kicked out, 
Like a wild animal locked up in a cage,
My brain feels like a wobbly jelly but my body is pumped up, 
Sometimes my mind forgets how to sleep.
But the air is a clean whistle, like a fresh glass of water,
The tall buildings are like trees that let the sunlight through,
And on the other side life is bright, 
It will be like sliding down a rainbow.
