After many years, I breathed free
I’d forgotten what it was to be me
As they moved back from the fore
I felt lighter and livelier in my core
My skin too, shined under the sun
More of my friends joined the fun
Birds, fishes, and animals returned
to claim the spaces, long yearned
The sky stole a glance in my face
‘This is my blue without the haze’
The earth slept quietly, unstirred
I can’t believe what has occurred
Where have they gone? I wonder
Will they come back??? I shudderI = river during a lock down
