“Home School”
Christine Joy W. Layto
Books are closing

And school is waiting.
Friends are sad,
I miss the learnings that we had!
No more playing with friends,

No more knees to bend,
No more sitting beside like brothers,
And no more teachers like mothers.
Home is the safest place for learning
Where I listen to my parents when they are teaching
They teach me to read and count numbers
Modules, television, and radio are the answers.
I am hiding and praying

To enjoy the world that we are living
Virus that spreads anywhere
Well, I need to take good care.
This problem will end soon,
I just pray to God and look at the moon.
Everything would be back to normal
Just like a calendar
My dreams will go beyond this far.
