It’s the five-year anniversary of the day
That upended the world as we knew it in every way
It was a seismic shift away from the way we used to operate
The world was paralyzed in a fearful state
A novel virus our world order had disrupted
Seemingly out of nowhere a pandemic had interrupted
The way we conducted business in a world globalized
The enormity of the pandemic we had yet to realize
Six feet away, masked and afraid
Cooped up in our homes we stayed
*
Exactly five years ago the pandemic was declared
It is amazing to see how the world has since fared..
We adapted and innovated through our fears
The scars from the pandemic have not disappeared..
*
Five years down the road, the most heartwarming part for me
Is that the pandemic was something we experienced collectively
To instantly connect with almost anyone anywhere
One can just talk about the pandemic we all shared..
Passion...unbridled
