Lockdown Thoughts

There came a tiny virus on our way, 

Making rich, poor and all of us its prey.

When we had reasons to roam, 

Saying it won't come to my home, 

Our front liners constantly stood there to defend, 

So our lives don't get to an end. 

Together and happy our families sit,

But we never knew a bit, 

That there are still many people so badly hit.

Birds and animals enjoying their boon, 

While stuck like a moth in a cocoon, 

Feeling the moon, 

Hoping to meet again soon, 

I look back on how we made things worse, 

And wonder, is this a lesson or a curse? 

By the mother earth, 

who demands for a rebirth.
