A Better Tomorrow


Politicians want to make money,
Use this virus as a kind of excuse,
Media spreads fear and it's not funny,
Is there a way to overcome these blues?

Nothing can help man out of this debacle,
Nothing can give him hope but a vaccine,
All the world wants now is a miracle,
Something to keep them safe from the unseen,

But what man needs now is not medicine,
Science is not something that can help him now,
He must rather bow heads in unison,
To the Almighty who has all know-how,

God will give peace even if there's none cured,
His grace is enough, of that be assured.
