I lie in bed wide awake
My anxious heart and mind
They’ve had all they can take
Will my son be okay?
Virtual school is so new to us
How will we find our way?
Is my son going to be happy?
Will he thrive?
How can we possibly survive?
All of the changes
That has affected us this year
Causing so many to live in fear
Today was the first day
Of our new school year
No backing out now, it’s definitely here
It went quite well
I regret my worries and uncertainty
We can do this and make it through
I know that it will get tougher
Today was only the first
We can do this if we don’t think the worst.
