Pax Ramadan
Pax Ramadan- Sonnet from Home Isolation
Stuck in my house with nothing to do
But my school work. School work that is sky high.
Then memories are sparked by Hamish, who?
Hamish Blake, humour the peak of the sky
He has a show where people build Lego
And suddenly there’s something to do! Light!
I watch while eating blocks of Freddo
And now, that childhood light is shining bright
Lockdown offered more than Lego in a suit,
From ancient archives, new games were polled,
And now my skill equals James Galway’s on the flute!
“Don’t play for too long,” I get told.
Although quarantine came with apparent doom,
I had many things to drown out that gloom!
