Corona Struck Our Door.......

Corona Struck Our Door.......

Dad is all alone in the hospital,

That was which I dreaded the most,

He was tested positive for Covid,

And now he has to face it all alone!


I too tested Covid positive with him,

As I was with him all along,

Helping and taking care of him,

Just some fever and fatigue I had!


My brother, his wife, and kids,

All Covid positive, with fever & cough,

They are getting better one by one,

My sister too is fine now!


It's three weeks now, all recovered,

Except for Dad, succumbed to it,

He fought all alone and gave up,

In just seven days' time!


He was in the hospital just for a week,

But, when not well and tired,

Difficult to manage on his own,

Sorry, Daddy, we couldn't be there!


God bless you and take you in his arms,

Forgive you and welcome you inside heaven's doors,

We dread September 2020 and Corona,

You get to know its dangers, only when it strikes your door!
