One Deadly Pathogen
Cars were humming
People were bustling around
These things happened
All year round.
We lived in blissful ignorance
Of the deadly pathogen
But when it roared to life
'twas chaos all around.
The world shut down
No one moved around anymore
Except for one pathogen
You guessed it right - Covid-19.
While we were in our houses
Cowering in fear
This malicious spirit prowled the land
Covered the sky, spread in the sea.
It travelled around the world with glee
Now, normal our life was not to be.
Somehow, it found many of us
Dug into our skin
Didn't spare our mind
Nor our life.
It is unwilling to end this strife
It is unwilling to give us respite
It wants the whole world to itself
Which shows us its selfish self.
But it is evil and we are good
We can do anything if we are in the mood
So a vaccine will be knocking soon
With a smile as bright as the shining moon.
