Ever since  the  Pandemic

Raised its ugly head

For humanity it never cared

And has stuck
To us like glue
Tightly wrapping
It’s tentacles

Suffocating me and you

It’s swatting humanity

Like flies left right centre

Regardless of colour caste or creed

We are all gripped with fear

As there is nobody near

In darkness we do grope

Wondering what are

We  going  to do?

Please do not despair!

Cause Prayers are there

Keeping us on the Path

Of straight and narrow

Even in times of trouble

Don’t give up

Cause Prayers will

Always keep one afloat

Tagged along with  a sign

Called :HOPE”!

Choicest Happiness
