Once in a Pandemic Time...

Once in a Pandemic Time...

2020 was a funny year,

A blip in our lives it did appear!

Three months down the line,

The world was lock downed by God’s design!


Work from home was joyfully accepted,

Till 24/7 work day sneaked in unsuspected;

From early morning to late in the night,

Glazed eyes and dazed looks became a common sight!


Fun and frolick came to an abrupt end,

No short breaks was very difficult to comprehend;

Elders in the family were tiresome and maddening;

Keeping them at home was absolutely challenging!


Essential buying acquired a very different meaning,

To get out of the house, this term was conveniently appealing;

Sitting safe at home, inside the bio bubble,

People wondered how could a virus cause so much trouble!


Seeing the pictures flashed on the TV screen,

We saw something like the crowns wore by many a queen;

But this was neither welcome nor wanted,

In fact, just to hear a sneeze nearby had everyone daunted!


The year limped by sanitised and masked,

Social distancing and hands washing had the world tasked;

Twenty Twenty like some players of ever popular games,

Had forever entered the century’s dubious hall of fame!
