Corona
Everything's coming up dead roses
March is like five months too long
Spring is no longer a time in the sun
But hiding away from it
The corona another name for the sun
Is coming up like flowers but not to enhance life
But they say to remove it
Corona rises in the East like the sun
And this time East meets West
But with shouting matches on who started it first
Children play not outside under the sky
But under watchful parents eyes
Everyone is a stranger but more deadly
Hugging mom can get you in hospital
World governments scurrying around with hopes of vaccines and incentives
To stay on national lockdowns
The real sun’s real corona is about life
The birds fly and the oceans wash ashore
And the rain falls down from above
And love will save us all from
CORONA
