The Thrill Is Gone

Going to school, meeting colleagues & students, pulled off my time Sharing tons of laughters,was a shrill of joy Explaining the chapters with vivid examples gained a good rapport. Exchanged bunch of happiness.. Pupils bustling around me,resembled like moon revolving around earth Their cute little answers for the question I ask,bursted balloon of smile The love and care they showered up on me has no limits. Unconditional love is immeasurable... Lovely students badged me as their young mother, Coz they enjoyed my teaching and humour filled friendly classes Colleagues loved me like a child and protected me like a flower. Profession plunged with fondness... Now, we sit in our homes,fearing the pandemic cause Drowned in grief,hearing to news channel's,incurring high loss Due to lockdown, standard of living has gone for a toss. Disastrously the thrill is gone.... 6-7-2020 Note:Pick-A-Title, Vol 19 - 4 Sapphic Stanzas - Poetry Contest(N/A) Title chosen:5.)The Thrill Is Gone Submitting to STRAND COMPLETELY NEW (25) ,any form,any theme Poetry Contest.
