In Lockdown

Locked within the four walls of my home Eyes glazed and fixed at the lights within the glass dome I turn inwards into the inner sanctuary of my soul Mortality staring at me, eternity my ultimate goal Wow the entire world at a stand still But who can quieten the mind which runs like a windmill Casting aside the cares and worries, indomitable the human will Knows how to weave in pleasure, each moment happily kill Never have I had so much rest Moments spent like a lavish holiday in my own nest Locked from without but unlocked from within As they say every dark cloud with silver lining.
