Covid-

nineteen came,

earth breaths with ease, 

Man dreams of old days to

return!

Humanity learns after every tragedy--only to soon forget. May the world heed your warning my friend. Awesome color and personality on that flower.

I pray humanity hears that my dearest friend, Vijay for I do not write just to impress, I write to pass a message, to give a warning for the upcoming catastrophe. Thank you for your support. God bless you. Keep healthy!

perhaps he should wish for simpler times again and change the way he does things, this is a warning...but many with greed will continue life the same I am afraid! already they are protesting here to go back to life (the virus is still spreading) but some don't seem phased...hugs XoXo

Man seems not to understand the gravity his existence is in. A human born with the computer in his hands cannot understand life in any other way. He lives in virtual reality. In the village I was born there was no electricity, no running water, no cars . It was like living in ancient times. We lived next to nature, we depended on it. Today's young decent on technology if one cuts electricity they are lost. What a pity. Our future is precarious. Thank you my dearest, Sandra Hugs xoxo Take care.

This was a wake up call, mankind was lucky this time, he'd better change his ways though. Factory farming, animals in horrendous conditions, breathing ground for all kinds of viruses. When the Spanish flu of 1918 returned over 50 million died. We live in hope Demetrios. Tom

Fortunately there is hope dear Tom. Hope alone is not enough . Hope must turn into friendly to the environment actions. What nature got from COVID-19 will lose it very soon. We must change our ways. That must be our priority. Thank your for lovely visit and comment. Stay safe.

Nature will find many ways to make Man to think and to change. If not, he will face the consequences of his actions. Thank you. Blessings dear JCB.
