The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

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
