All Of A Sudden My Hope Fell Down - Lois, 9, Otley

Lois read a poem she has written about waking up on a sunny morning feeling safe and hopeful, until she made her way through town. She didn’t meet anyone there, and the queue at the supermarket was very long and full of fearful people.

Lois considered coming back later or using something else instead of toilet paper, and she wished she was back in her bed.
