A BROMSGROVE teenager whose mum works as a midwife for the NHS has written a poem about the Coronavirus crisis and to thank the key workers.
Eryn Turbutt, who is 13 and attends St John’s Middle School, penned the piece while mum Louise was at work.
She said: “I’m so incredibly proud of her work.”
She sent it to the Standard so it could be shared.
The poem is below.
As suffering takes its lead,
Life still goes on despite
Being stuck in quarantine,
Watching birds fly high,
In minutes of silence
Knowing families in the
Nation are having to say goodbye
To their loved ones in
Sufferance,
London is now in mute,
Paris is falling out of
Love
As love cannot be shared,
Disney is no longer magical
As the world is now tragical,
Hugs are now a crime,
Relationship and friendships
Are being put to the tests,
The words I do are no longer
A matter
But staying safe is all that matters.
Civilians wondering
Will the world ever recover.
To all the Key Workers,
Battling this pandemic
THANK YOU
for helping the world to recover!
