Stay At Home

Remain inside your own house, 
To keep away from virus; 
Don't ever roam like a mouse, 
The disease is contagious.

Keep safe under your own roof, 
Place your life in quarantine; 
There's no need to taste the proof
Of deadly covid-nineteen.

Let front-liners do their task, 
Sans hindrance and distraction; 
Go to market with face mask, 
Or wait for food and ration.

What if the doctor and nurse
Succumb to unseen monster; 
The things will turn even worse, 
Health hazard will get longer.

So let lockdown be applied, 
No touch, no hug, no handshake; 
Not a few patients have died, 
Precautions we have to take.
