From going out I have to refrain Terrified by the passing by Corona thunder and Pandemic rain, Oddly defying science, A chimera, Looming large Again and again.
I have begun To pine For old me Freely out to The neighborhood And street Somebody to meet Somebody to greet.
After Covid-19's Shock treatment, My reservation I admit In being picky When choosing people I used to meet.
"Love your friend As yourself As God said It has dawned on me In humanity's treasure trove Should come peoples' love Of course all things atop Must be placed In-God-vested hope.(Mark 12: 30-31)
My behavior spiraling Out of control A feeble and complacent Human being I stretched my imagination As if God Has secondary or no role. As such, Earthly pursuit Was my goal. Now, as King David said, (plasm 122:1) I reflect Going to church, Uplifting soul, allows With God keeping In touch. It has also sank in Brushing shoulders With collogues Was enthusing Aloof, on my chair Before I perch, At times to do Reading research.
I realized the money I used to stash away To make hay, While others were starving And when I could become People hungry Had no meaning.
I want to see The broadmass No more afraid Out, on their table To put bread!
I pined my liberty of To and fro Breathing oxygen free Before the Corona lockdown decree.
I want to project My true face Forced not on My lovely face A mask to place.
With a square shoulder I want to walk No more ringing In my ear The pandemic talk. I want to rove the land And fly on the sky To feast my eyes On touristic spots Or goods to buy, May God allow me Such things again Before I die! I also pine to see The day Undertakers are No longer in a hurry Fellow citizens To bury.
I pray for God's Mercy Gramercy!
But now Keeping social distance Washings hands with soap Putting on face mask And sanitizing is What I advance.
True to Jesus's parable if a Shepard who had 100 sheep missed one, he will worry more about the one he lost. I missed people--friends, neighbors ,colleagues and fellow citizens
