Lessons Learnt From Lockdown

*Theme: Lessons learnt from lockdown.*

I’ve learnt many lessons during lockdown,
Listing a few top to down,
People are still facing problems in working town,
It has made them knocked down…

A lesson that we can survive without junkfood,
Adds a little more savings to the livelihood,
Home cooked helps getting a better anatomical,
And it’s easy to be economical...

Social distancing broke all castes prejudice
Maintaining a gap & being nice,
Pandemic is same for upper or lower,
Reaping a crop sown by the neighbouring sower...

Everyone is up with new discoveries,
We accepted that life runs without luxuries,
We just need essential goods,
Like in ancient times, cooking fuel were only woods...

We learnt the book of being hygienic,
If applied to routine, relaxes our phrenic & supports the splenic,
It taught that nothing is valuable, silver or gold,
All we need are the people with whom we wanna grow old...

It gave an example of how animals survive in cages,
They are facing cruelty since ages,
Show kindness to poor migrants by providing them shelter,
Pain is same for all, only the manner is altered,

3/4th of the population can manage work from home,
We need not to unnecessarily roam,
Life had some needless things, now gone,
I'm concluding the lockdown on a positive note...

Humans are the real threat to nature,
Our hi-tech moves giving it a torture,
The environment can heal itself, be it a river, an ocean, the sky or the mangroves,
Lockdown was a healing period, hence proved.
