The night sky that left us in awe
The bright stars that twinkle,
That moon amidst the shades of clouds,
Beautiful!
Those were the nights,
When night was indeed a black beauty!
Have those nights really gone?
Far away till June or July?
Or even farther?
Does that mean we gotta hold on till then?
With every passing night,
The fear speaks itself,
“Are you creeping in, Mr. Spikes?”
Yes, that beautiful yet notorious creature,
Wearing a crown like he'll rule us!
The Corona Virus (Sars-CoV-2). Indeed!
The fear, you say, been ruling the best on the frontline,
The frontline medical, nursing and other dept we talk of,
Those who talk about hygiene (personal & social),
But aren't they the ones considered dirty and untouchables now?
Oops! Irony out there laughing!
Let the conspiracies talk for themselves from Wuhan,
Let the fire erupt from within the community,
Whether they kill or hide, the people are the real leaders,
The leaders of all the nations we must trust,
Trust that you'll stay in Quarantine for others,
A generous and kind act for humanity.
You may join your hands and remember the front line warriors in your prayers.
Pray for the dawn that the night would bring back,
For people like us to appreciate the black beauty again.
