Bye Bye Corona

Lockdown Virtually in Jail A Killer Virus...... Covid-19 plagues A silent terror...... Got the world in a panic mode 627 people died in one day alone Distance To avoid infections Sore throat...... Fever and congestion Can't breathe...... Under the attack of a virus beast Roaming the earth for someone to eat Respect We're in this together Keep it clean...... It's contagious as ever No groups...... A crown germ is on the loose And it's pandemonium all over Patience Isolates this strain We are humans...... In God we stake our claim Be extra vigilant...... What you do can affect me too Bye Bye Corona be gone with YOU

The power of thought is an incredible thing, Arturo, you used it to your full force there, if only the rest of the world would take heed and follow, amen . . . : /

At the time it was written, 627 was a big number in Italy...now we're talking 50,000 plus...Thank you Gail...I love the way you express your thoughts in poem...

Excellently penned Arturo and the final stanza certainly is coming true where I live - only one new case in 3 days so the measures certainly are making a huge difference to our small community:-) hugs Jan xx

Arturo Michael

Yeah... "BYE BYE to it!!!" We are being taught by fear...the same way back in the old days...with the rod of correction, or the whip for the slave...I can't believe this is happening in 2020...

People are in panic. Today went to supermarket to buy a few necessities unfortunately what I was looking for didn't find! The people working there were very aggressive. I understand them, they fear and they are right. When they hear in Italy died 800 or so in 24 hours is something it makes one think however we must keep our humanity, control our fear and keep our faith intact! We shall be victorious just do the right thing to be protected. Thank you for caring dear, Arturo. God bless you!

Yes, the attendants and cashiers are all in fear...sometimes I believe it's more than it appears...I've never seen such misery on faces before...Thanks Demetrios

Hi Arturo, a frightening time indeed. All we can do is follow all the guidelines and just use common sense. Well, I won't need to go out to the shops for another week. We all have to stand together through this one and try and stop the spread of the Virus. Spring always comes Arturo, we shall have our Spring once this pendemic is past. A wonderful, real piece of poetry, my friend. Have a wonderful Sunday. Your friend always....Mike.

This will be a plague of the past, I figured 25 years from now, if read, would give a feeling of how we felt at this time...

Great advice Arturo. We all need to be more aware of this terrible virus that can kill. We truly are at war and we will eventually win if we are dilligent. xxoo
