Covid 19

COVID -19


On a negative note ....

Survivors left with heavy hearts 
As rest live in fears;
The unheard unseen enemy
has put mankind to tears;
He who seemed to rule the world
is now locked in scare;
Forever he wished to reign
the entire universe.

As came the Corona storm
life put to a standstill;
Not sure of whether he lives or not
Lives in confinement;
Gone crazy washing hands
Struggles for survival;
Having killed almost every being 
Did he own the earth ?


On a positive note....


The rivers are clean now
sky is clear and blue;
Tender morning chirps are heard
aroma is in the breeze;
Woods whisper melodies
Flora in vibrant colours blooms;
Fauna with a sigh of relief
Dancing and flying in packs.

As he sits calm and quiet
The corona storm shall pass;
Will he defy selfishness 
and be good to every class?
Has he learnt to appreciate 
mother nature’s plentiful brass?
So beautiful and everlasting.....
