CORONA VIRUS (COV-19)

The Black Death, or bubonic plague, which happened nearly 700 years ago, (in the three year period of 1347 to 1351 in which it lasted) took the lives of an estimated 75 to 200 million people.  It stayed dormant for 300 years.  It then reared its ugly head in Spain and London.  The plague is certainly a devastating entity to be reckoned with.  The attack by terrorists on 9/11 was a dastardly deed perpetrated by cowards and the death toll was horrendous but by comparison, the Black Death is by far the worse catastrophe ever witnessed by mankind.  In Biblical History, leprosy was the most dreaded disease which maimed and killed many.  But rest assured there are days coming that all the combined plagues of history can compare.  In the Book of Matthew 24:6-13 it reads:  "And you will hear of  wars and rumors of wars.  See that  you are not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.  For nation will rise up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.  And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places.  All these are the beginning of sorrows.  Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name's sake.  And then many  will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another."  There is already great evidence of this taking place in government today and all around the world.  You may ask the question, "What does this have to do with the Corona  Virus (COV-19)?  The Corona Virus can be controlled.  The chaos and devastation of Armageddon cannot be stopped or brought under control.  Therefore, it is an undisputed fact that the world will experience a catastrophe far greater than anything that has ever taken place.  Matthew 6:33-34 reads: "Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.  Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things.  Sufficient for the day is its own trouble."

Another One Shuts Down - Corona Virus Edition

Another One Shuts Down (Corona virus version)

Gates and boards and reels of wire
Garbage by the gates
Driveway overgrown with grass
The factory is a state

Security checks once an hour
To make sure all's still locked
Another business shut it's door
the economy was rocked

Another workplace bites the dust
Another one shuts down
To find the business district here
You've got to leave the town

They're closing up 'bout one a month
Jobs are leaving by the score
When you leave, turn out the lights
And please folks, lock the door

Work is leaving faster than
It has ever in the past
There's more folks on assistance
How long will this all last?

Fifty years a hundred ten
Factories closing shop
There's more buildings that are vacant
Our growth came to a stop

It doesn't matter where you go
It's that damn covid one nine
If you are not essential
Out goes the "CLOSING" sign

It all comes down to profit
You're a number not a name
It doesn't matter where you go
Plant closure is the game

Another workplace bites the dust
Another one shuts down
To find the business district here
You've got to leave the town

They're closing up 'bout one a month
Jobs are leaving by the score
When you leave, turn out the lights
And please folks, lock the door

Corona Virus

Corona virus sent to try us 
Unnerve  Confuse  deplete  divide us 
It comes to scare it comes to kill 
The vulnerable the old and ill
It spreads it’s panic it spreads it’s fear
It’s  harsh  unjust  mortal ,severe 
Dark and viscous it seeks and thrives 
Culling the weak ending lives 
Misery uncertainty  you cannot comprehend 
Deviant Inimical it’s aim is to offend 
It feels like a movie it feels like a dream 
Locked down and scared I want to scream 
Fear of the doorbell fear of the street 
Fear of the people I once used to meet 
Fear for the loved ones I cannot be near 
Fear of the virus fear of the fear 
War is atrocious but the enemy’s clear 
But the Invisible virus will never appear
It’s in the air it’s on the ground 
On things you touch it’s all around  
it seeks and finds the weak and old 
And suffocates until their cold  
It has no conscience no concerns
It feeds and thrives it lives and learns 
Destroys and ruins breaks and hates 
Silently it decimates 
It Spreads so fast it’s hard to cope 
There is no cure there’s only hope 
It deals in death as it passes by 
No comfort for the ones who die 
Annihilation? is it’s mission
It needs no help or no permission 
A wake of tears and misery 
Is the only trace it leaves to see 
Its pray is helpless and will not know 
Until it’s time for them to go 
Hungry for another soul
It now ramps up The human cull 
Seas and borders no protection 
The world now waits for its infection 
A tiny mist of human breath 
Will make you ill or cause your death 
So hide away beyond detection 
Spare your kisses your affection  
Hide so you may be ok 
And live to fight another day 
Hide so there will always be 
A hope for our humanity
It will not relent There is no cure 
So Stay indoors and lock your door 
Spare your touch and wash your hands
Observe the rules advice and bans 
Save your kisses save your hug 
And we will  beat this deadly bug


Corona Virus Welcome To the Uk

Its here the thing we all fear, 
The apocalypse is near,
The devils spurn has risen,
Trapping us in our homes like prisons,

To plague our planet already broken,
Is it retaliating, squeezing our lungs chocking,
Like the black death the plague upon our people,
Swooping, stealing the lives of the weak and feeble.

The most innocent are victims of the virus,
A sickening twist to this sickness sent to us,
From an unholy ghastly maker,
This is not the handy work of any saviour.

Is it a clense of the human race,
A government conspiracy for goodness sakes,
Bats are where it supposedly derives,
A rodent of the night skies,

Despite everyone's efforts its spreading like flies,
No loo roll paracetamol or thermoeter will scare it away,
It looks like it plans to stay,Just like an unwanted guest, Who's warn out its stay, so I'll guess I'll be the first to say
Welcome Corona virus to the UK.

Little Corona

Little Corona
declared one day
"I will be the strongest,
most powerful I say !"

"I shall conquer the world,
and establish my reign.
The world in my hands,
never free again !"

"The fittest shall survive,
as Darwin said.
And all the weaklings,
will sadly be dead"

"Ridden with fever,
cough and cold,
the world will suffer,
the young and the old...."

"My reign will start
where its most populated,
I think its China"
little Corona speculated.

"I will then go on 
to the Americas,
the world's most famous,
celebrated landmass."

"And that's not the end"
little Corona  went on,
"I will destroy the world,
my reign will go on !"

"I will make sure,
none can escape, NONE !!
Try as hard as they might,
to fight me or run."

"I am the most powerful,
and I am very clever.
I will conquer the world,
You can defeat me NEVER !!"

Or so Corona thought,
being little and immature.
But man is much smarter,
and will certainly find a cure !

Corona Virus


I am a terrible virus, fast and wise
400 micron plus is roughly my size
I am a zoonotic, Corona is my name
Infecting unwary humans is my game

I remain on ground and not in the air
To catch careless humans unaware
On a metal surface I survive for 12 hours
After that period I lose all my powers

If I fall on fabrics I stay alive for 9 hours
To kill me, the fabrics need good showers
Or a 2-hour exposure to bright sunshine
Will succeed in sending me forever offline

I can survive 10 minutes on human hands
Handwash with a sanitizer can upset my plans 
Exposing me to temperatures of 27o C plus
Will send me to RIP without any fuss

My conduciveness to pandemic brings me fame
Leaking into the human lungs is my aim
Countries get panicky as my presence is felt
Commotion everywhere to seek a safety belt

My name evokes terror in every mind
Doctors get worried as I’m a unique kind
Old vaccines and medicines do not work
Fear of my presence makes the people berserk

Race, nationality is of no concern to me
I invade places as far as my eye can see
Changing greeting customs is also my flair
From handshakes to folded hands in the air

Whosoever comes in my way I do not spare 
Whether Presidents or cobblers I don’t care
People feel greatly relieved when I die away
They pray that I don’t resurrect  another day


Premium Member Coronavirus Covid 19

I’ve had enough of chicken soup,
it always tastes the same;
as COVID-19 sweeps the world 
and leaves our loved ones lame,
Poetrysoup is just the thing
to ease away the pain. 
Just today, in Italy, 
I read that neighbors sing,
through open windows across the streets
while kept in quarantine. 
Here, we neighbors of the world
now open up our screens,
and gather up our thoughts and words
and let our heartstrings sing. 
The music of our keyboards carries far,
more quickly than a sneeze, 
to make our fellow human beings
feel much more at ease. 
Nearly neighbor, unseen friend,
let us share our songs,
across the streets of data bits,
no matter what the wrong.

Premium Member My Corona - the Corona Virus Song

Her name was Nola
From Hispaniola
She liked to get her fix
On Coca-Cola

She liked to coochy-coo
With everyone she knew
But when she blew her nose
Then all her friends withdrew

At Corona
Corona virus
It's the hottest spot
North of your sinus

At Corona
We fell pell-mell
Ah ah ah
Don't feel so well
Ah ah ah, ah ah

His name was Lu Gan
He came from Wuhan
He liked to dance all night
As much as you, man

He liked to socialize
With all the girls and guys
But since he caught the bug
His mouth is catching flies

At Corona
Corona virus...

Her name was Betty
She was a free spouse
She liked to play all day
In someone's tree house

But she could not survive
When you turn sixty-five
You run a higher risk
That you won't leave alive

At Corona
Corona virus...

Her name was Miley
A human virus
I guess that's why she clogs
The human sinus

But when she caught the flu
She spread her germs on you
A way to make you sick
And make you angry too

At Corona
Corona virus
It's the hottest spot
North of your sinus

At Corona
We fell pell-mell
Ah ah ah
Don't feel so well
Ah ah ah
BUT YOU CAN'T TELL
Ah ah ah, Ah ah!

Premium Member Simply Gone - the Virus

Wow, it turns out Trump was right.
I saw it on “the Onion” - posted overnight.

Scientists woke up today and the virus
was simply gone - the miracle - has happened.
And they said that Trump was wrong!

The once dying - started laughing
first responders broke into song
patients shrugged off ventilators
they can go back home where they belong.

That God has been so merciful
is a story ripped from scripture
and since Trump - the antichrist - is here
we can move on to the rapture!

Premium Member Is Our Arrogance So Strong - In the Wake of the Corona Virus

Are those tears of sorrow or pure wrath,
God’s anger at mankind
Put on earth to tread his path,
Just to see us stumbling blind.

Little knowing, quite uncaring
Of our world so full of life,
Wanton damage truly glaring,
Callous actions clearly rife.

Have we suddenly forgotten,
Is our arrogance that strong,
That we too were once downtrodden,
But a cog in nature’s throng.

Now we act as Lord and Master,
Spitting sentence with huge swaths,
Destruction fostered ever faster
Life’s fabric swarmed by human moths.

Time to pause, soak in the wonder
At Earth’s bounty in all it’s forms, 
Embrace God’s gift and stop the plunder,
Live our lives by Nature’s norms.

The Lockdown

Who knew a day would dawn
And bring life to a grinding halt! 
Busy days are all gone, 
Yet we are captive in our vault. 

Streets are desolate and dark, 
Barring the patrolling police;
Stealthily leaving its mark, 
Is a novel viral disease. 
 
As fear of death looms large, 
Shut are malls and the rest;
While hospitals, those in-charge
Bravely try their best. 
 
Monday blues are no more, 
Work from home is a trend;
A hundred cures, we explore, 
Wonder what will put an end! 

Few rekindle hobbies lost,
Some are funding a cause; 
Cleaner air is here at a cost, 
Life is no longer as it was. 
 
Hungry, helpless, the poor weep, 
Washing away their smiles;
Peacefully we fall asleep, 
While the migrants walk miles! 
 
Set aside religion and race, 
Social distancing is the key;
Help curb this menace, 
Covidiots let us not be! 
 
Remember this crisis we fought, 
In every village, every town;
Cherish the lessons it taught, 
For life beyond the lockdown.

Covid Madness Sweeps Through the World

Covid madness sweeps through the world


General Corona 
unleashes his army 
the invisible army
upon the world
killing millions 
in its wake
spreading chaos and death
as he rides in 
on the black horse of death
harbinger of the end of days
destroyer of worlds
ending of the world
revelations come to life

Covid 19
Pandemonium erupts
Toilet paper is king
Churches are cancelling
The choirs cannot sing

Covid 19
Covid 19
The last known hand sanitizer
Has been stolen out of the hands of a dead woman
A woman who was alive when she picked it up
But the man had an ax and was not afraid to use it

Schools are closing down fast and hard.
People are buying all the peanut butter they can carry
Family reunions are being cancelled
And brides and grooms are not allowed to marry

Such a pandemic of thoughtlessness
I had previously never seen
The level of angst and fear so high
The atmosphere quite mean

Covid 19

My heart is heavy today for the children so young
Who have no idea that celebrating no school is eventually going to be no fun
For one day they will have to make up what they miss today
Most likely their summer vacation they will have to pay

Sonnet For a Corona Virus

A dark and unseen presence in our midst
Spreads fear and caution stifling our striving
Would sole and loving God choose to enlist
Such agency to threaten our surviving?

In infinite diversity of forms
That populate the universe we know
Creations come with each new day that dawns
Chance: minor deities vie to bestow

Might one small god be swelling now with pride
His blessed child with given name: a crown
Has spread its realm extending far and wide
Domain where now the sun does ne’er go down

But kingdoms come and go as dew on grass
Men and viruses prevail but then shall pass
