Pandemic
12 AM!
Happy 2020
Everyone greeted in delight
"Not yet", uttered corona
From venturesome everyday
Something distant
To being trapped in lockdown
For several months
We all got a lesson
Nothing is everlasting
Accept the constant tussle
We had in quarantine
In the list of 2020 plans
All we own is
Sanitizers and masks
Precautions and disclaimers like
Cover your face
Or else this virus will cover
Beneath the ground
Within white sheets
Handshakes and hugs
Ruined by social distancing
Stay home stay safe
The only slogan we heard thousand times
From hoping the cases will turn down
To rapid rising in deaths
May god protect us
We pray all the time
Consoling ourselves
This pandemic will end soon
All left with only one thought
Why china did this to us
