Corona and Social Distancing

There sneaked a micro organism into the lives of human kind from elsewhere, Who made it intruded is still a mystery, yet it’s fate of the world That life on earth is engulfed with thorns and bruises? They say: It’s from bats, some say: it’s a shoot of ‘Bio-war’, No doubt it’s a sinister game and human lives are the ball, hit and shot, Thousands of goals have been dropped and there was no cry of joy, But ‘cross the world there hath been flow of tears and fears. The human lives, tainted with creepy killer organism, seek shields of defense, And there around the Round Table Conference clicked a thought of ‘Social distancing’. Provinces and states raised the alarm of crisis to avert throngs and mobs, It hath been a portent for the imminent disaster on the face of earth, A ‘day of shut’ hath been imposed on the lives as precaution – No politics, no religion, no caste, no race and ego shall be the law, For the blood is the same red with tissues and organs for all. The day began with the legal menace ‘cross the country, And the wheels and bags were restricted screech and rustle, The rich and the poor entered their ‘house bags’, And there seen empty roads and streets except faint travelers. Round the clock people’s saviours were seen sweeping and spraying sterile medicine, Life-saving doctors and nurses were seen in spring-up action, And those infected folks were brought under the treatment of the life-savers. Behind the legitimate bars of seclusion from the pandemic infection, There was seen a life of silence for a noble cause, It was not a total inactivity, but a self introspection of social distancing - A pledge to chase the epidemic killer virus away from human kind! Media of service ran thro’ hazards and perils brought into rooms the day’s tasks. It was a joint fight against COVID -19 beyond human restrictions, And each of us shall be a victor ‘gainst the epidemic violence.
