PHASE FOUR

We Are Not Ready Yet The Government Says
As Many A Pub Owner Lowers And Shakes Their Heads In Dispair
How Many Pubs And Businesses
Have Heard The Death Knoll
And May Never Again Open Their Doors At All
A Green List For Travel Is Starting To Unwind
As The Numbers Start To Climb Again
These Countries Are Not Doing Fine
Enjoy A Staycation
Invest In Our Own Home Grown Tourism Industry
Explore And Discover Our Hidden Gems
Scattered Throughout Our Land
John Hume, Our Derry Born Peacemaker
Has Gone To His Eternal Home
He Left Us A Legacy Of Peace In Our Time
He Taught Us That The Art Of Negotiation Was To Extend A Hand To Friend And Foe
Throughout Our Land May We Never Forget The Cost To Many
As We Deal With A New Foe That Lives Among Us Now
A Deadly Enemy That Cares Not Who You Are
Will Infiltrate Your Body, Mind And Soul If You Do Not Take Care
It’s Not The Time To Let Down Your Guard Or Act Complacently
Keep Doing What’s Expected Of You
It Will Get Us Through This Difficult Time
We Are All Living Through
Doing Our Best, Living The Best Life We Can
Looking Out, Caring For Each Other
Every Child, Woman And Man
Let Us Be Grateful For The Country We Are
Standing Firm Together, Heart To Heart
Yet Apart
And Remember Our Actions Are Speaking Louder Than Our Words
