THE PANDEMIC - 

Pandemic is like a messenger of death which is killing silently but severely,

We have no time to stand and stare helplessly.

You are not the cause of any mischief,

It is because of this pandemic that the town is filled with grief.

The pandemic is so severe, such a scourge,

That it took people away in their sleep.

You have once in a lifetime opportunity to stay at home,

To watch your children closely and lovingly.

Stay strong, spiritually, mentally, emotionally,

Slow down, introspect, organize your priorities.

Discover your values, limit your desires,

Spend time with aging parents, watch life closely.

Many fell breathless last night & some died.

Look at the people, praying with tearful eyes

.

No one is responsible for any pandemic, its only our deeds,

We have disturbed the environment for our greed.

Thousands lives have gone and many are suffering with deadly pandemic,

OH GOD! accept our sincere prayers, take away the pandemic.
