At thirty-six,
What have you seen?

Nothing.
-----
At thirteen,
What your child had seen?

Nothing.
-----
At thirty-six,
What the world around you had seen in you?

Nothing.
----
At thirty-six,
What did you give to the world?

Nothing.
----
At thirty-six,
What dreams are there that you aspired to dream?

Nothing?
----
At thirty-six,
What is left after you left this world?

Nothing.
----
Gone too soon,
Taken by virus,

Corona has taken
smile away,

From
Each Home,
Each City,
Each State,
Each Country,
Each Continent.

And

What did it leave behind?

Nothing.
