Lockdown
100 Lockdown Poems.
“My today was alright and my tomorrow will certainly be better. That’s the way I’ve always looked at life.” Sir Captain Tom Moore.
During one of the toughest periods in modern history Sir Captain Tom Moore inspired a nation with his determination to do some good and to do his part. This collection is my tribute to this inspirational and courageous man. Each poem looks to encapsulate a moment, a theme or a feeling of what has been one of the hardest couple of years many of us have experienced.
“Sarah Hobbs obviously put her down time to good use. ‘Lockdown’ is a lovely poetic time capsule of the last two years, capturing in verse the sentiments a lot of us were thinking.”
~ Mark Niel, Milton Keynes Poet Laureate ~
