Pandemic Panacea

Disrespecter of borders,colour and creed
This pandemic reveals a truth we  all must  heed
To know that we are all but one and the same
Beneath our skin and culture in this life's game
Where we suffer the sad symptoms and the pain
To reclaim our common  brotherhood again
From this dark cloud a silver lining brightens
So that belief in our unity heightens

Such grim moments see us drop our defences
Allowing us clearly to come to our senses
Whether rich or poor,white or black,young or old
In shared humanity we find our true gold
So let this plain message ring out loud and clear
When acting together we have naught to fear.
