Here’s the poem created by Carolina entitled “Thank you, 2020”:
Thank you, 2020 for making me explore every part of our house. Now I know the exact number of tiles in our kitchen. They are fifty and I love playing on them like I am skiing in Finland where I dream to see Northern lights.
Thank you, 2020 for making me value the sound of the jalousie windows when I close them. The tune makes me feel secured as the outside world is filled with battles against the invisible enemy.
Thank you, 2020 for reminding me that life is a leaf clinging to the branch of a tree without knowing when it will fall to the ground. I am blessed that I still dance with the wind. I will just sway and ’til spring shows her beauty to me anew.
