Desolation In Despondence

DESOLATION IN DESPONDENCE

   Me jovial convivial social being
   always cherishing cheery dynamism in every step,
   now global crisis putting in compulsive isolation.
   
   House confinement subject to social distancing running mandatory.
   Standstill static stagnant situation creating suffocation.
   But what to do, no alternative. 
   I must cope up to fight against invader virulent virus Corona
   spreading silhouette of sudden scare in sky of global life,
   endangering mass of populace.
  
   Home imprisonment tough, 
   but tougher to manage household cores
   for Indian Senior citizens dependent on domestic help.
  
    Wishful expectation to start Count Down
    to end Lock Down at earliest
    to get relief on revival of normal life.
