Three Poems About Appreciating Key Workers

Brave

Why don't we clap for shop assistants so brave? 
Walk past their window and give them a wave,
Open your window, open your door,
Stand on your balcony and clap once more!

Isolation

Everyone's talking about isolation, deprivation and separation,
Here, there and across the nation,
Everyone's going out to clap and cheer,
Every Thursday at 8.00pm we hear,

Some are dancing, others having a sing-song,
I only hope it doesn't go on for long,
I know it's serious, but don't despair,
Just stay indoors and please take care.

Rainbow

Put a rainbowon your window
Hang a rainbowon your door
Clap your hands at 
I'm sure you know the score!
Start singingor even have a dance!
Isolate yourselves, please don't take a chance!
