No boxes, no borders, no walls
Free spirit flowing in the breeze
Like the curtains at an open window
You cannot cage the wild wind
Cool air bringing fresh perspective
Blowing ideas into consciousness
Impossible now a hint of prospect
The eccentric breathes imagination
From the outrageous and outlandish
To the conformists who will consider
Making new magical discoveries
And leaving regulations and restrictions
Narrow views and dead-straight lines
In a dictated past, void of dreaming
Beyond the ceilings and the horizons
Beyond the socially acceptable rules
To release the marvellous truth
That is your authentic energy
Free to blow, breeze and whisper
No boxes, no borders, no walls

This works for me, Debbie, with its wider implications than just escape from lockdown. Particularly liked “Beyond the socially acceptable rules” – new concepts needed, hinted at in your ending – “Free to blow, breeze and whisper
No boxes, no borders, no walls”
