Poem Title:
Poem
First day of lockdown I was enjoying everything Had a healthy breakfast after that Watched tv ,played on line chess Had a good nap to complete relax. About 11 o clock i left the bed Put on slippers and stepped forward to door Opened it lazily Shocked by calmness of city What happened today here But recalled soon, 'today is lockdown,' I shut the door hurriedly. Came into the bedroom Again held the remote and searched channels But regret there was nothing which can make me busy So i tried on line chess but got defeat Nothing was going right way I watched the time it was 12'o clock. It is very difficult to kill the time When you had nothing to do. Nervously I put on sleepers and Again stepped forward not to door but window I peeped through slightly opened wooden pane But shocked again to see all blank. As loser i returned back. I made my mind to fight lockdown as brave man And planned to spent 7 more hours before dinner . I moved slowly and silently to kitchen first time Where my better half was making lunch. 'Do you want any help ' i said 'Are you fine dear ' she asked Yes, I am fine, replied me I need some work to help you What can i do for you, I asked Whatever you liked dear , she smiled I searched here and there in kitchen Suddenly I saw onions and knife there Dear, can i cut onion ? Ok ,but take care,she said As i cut first slice of onion There were tears in both's eyes For both reasons pleasure and sorrows. An old saying, 'trouble never comes alone ' I realised hard truth that day I had cut both onion and index finger It was bleeding fast 'Bring cotton and dettol' ,i screamed She brought only cotton with delay 'Where is dettol?' I asked It was emptied last week. Go and bring from medical store, i ordered 'Today is lockdown', she said Is medical store closed too? I asked 'Yes ,it is Janta lockdown All is closed by will' ,she said 'You are lazy and careless,' i started the quarrel This was the first remark that i had made After that there was hot exchanges of words I stepped toward gate Opened it and closed at once angrily. Sometimes later i ringed to pizza cafe They replied in very sweet tune,sorry sir I again ringed to tiffin centre to dinner The answer as expected, sorry sir I looked helplessly toward her But she was hurt badly Thus i spent first day of lockdown Without lunch and dinner. Stay Home Stay Safe In Corona Crisis
