New Beginnings
By: Raveena Duggal
It starts off silent,
there isn’t a person in sight.
Then you hear a small creak,
hope rises instead of despair.
The sound of the earth awakening,
the music of people’s voices
surrounds you with open doors.
New beginnings await!
The economy is slowly rising,
places are opening up.
The sound of people is growing,
stocks are rising and falling.
The smell of popcorn is in the air again,
the rush of people swarming to theatres.
Covid-19 has opened our eyes,
to value what we took for granted.
