Covid Crisis

Don’t display, they will quarantine.
Runaway escape the quarantine.

•	Don’t worry, just a few days till it fades.
      This will keep your family and society safe.

I don’t believe in social distancing,
Solitude is something I hate!

•	A carrier infects all, around.
      If we don’t kill it, it will hound.

I am young and strong and immune.
Keeping me in won’t be a boon.

•	If virulent patients don’t survive coz of its stepping,
      And if Grandpas and grannies die, you would be abetting!

How will I survive, this makes me dread!
Who will give me butter and bread?

•	You will get your wage,
      There is no reason for such rage.

•	Just for few days we are all banned.
      The government has your back, together we shall withstand.

What if people die, it’s their own fate!
Better, you get it straight!!

•	We are a family and each one is priceless,
        Empathise, don’t leave your niceness.
        Let’s stand together through this crisis.
