People who won the bread now buy the bread.
People who were beyond their jobs are now having time with their family.
People who were busy in their career now share the household work.
People who spent time only with their colleagues now play with their kids.
People who are rich now eat and manage money like the middle class.
People who are middle class eat and manage money like the poor.
People who are poor now are hungry and are pushed to poverty.
People who go for walking are now walking on their terrace.
People who spent time by going to temples, mosques, churchs, hotels, malls, cinema halls, recreation centers, parks, walking and jogging, gym now only go to shops for food and medical needs.
People who did their household work with the help of servants now use their own hands to clean, mop, sweep and wash.
This poem depicts the lockdown situation  not only in India but throughout the world.

Aim high reach for the star and sky
Shun your laziness and fear
Stride in the right path with head held high
Aiming to reach the goal
