The buildings were big
And people would smile
Travel they would
Mile by mile
But sick they become
And numbers, it grew
Businesses worried
Communities too
Things stop for a bit
The world slowed its roll
The virus had certainly taken its toll
But what they then saw
From slowing things down
They now had less reason to frown
Families now gathered
'What games shall we play?'
'Pass my the blue crayon'
'Give mummy the grey.'
'Daddy is home guys! He'll read us a book.'
Then all of us together
We might just cook
The lungs of the planet
Caught a small break
Less travel meant less pollution to make
People did realise that it will be okay
They don't need so much to get through the day
Maybe this virus that caused so much stress
Showed the whole world that more can mean less.
