Corona Virus
Corona virus; we cannot trust
Hundreds already have become dust
Millions fought back the death's spell
Conquering corona, now living well
Humans greed for sentient foods
And their craving for luxury goods
Led us to destroy the environment
Purely, for selfish enjoyment
Plastics, vinyls float on the waves
For many trendy items we've become slaves
Austerity is only a political slogan
The way we live today is not paragon
Spanish flu endemic took many lives
Plaque and swine flu, marked our times
Diseases pass by some have to die
History will repeat and we shouldn't cry
Show compassion for our fellow creatures
Treat well our planet's great many features
Accept the good and bad with equanimity
Be all blessed with Corona immunity
