My Shopping List
It has been two years
I didn't go shopping
My shopping list left blank
Compare with last time
I went everyday
Though I bought little
But the cheapest bargains
Just wandering about most of the time
Killing time
And adding pleasure
I saved a lot
During MCO
And now I wonder
What should I put on the list
Suddenly I got the answer
I want to buy happiness, health and safety
And just these
No materialistic
But only spiritual
These I never think of befòre
But only after many people
Lost their lives
Happiness and health
During the epidemic of Covid 19
Only then and only then
I wake up
To do good
And to learn to behave always
As I am lucky to have the chance
And so you too
