MARCH OF 2020


What has changed in the March of Twenty Twenty
Sun is shining but temperature mild
Clouds appear friendly and provide occasional shower
Trees looked washed with fragrance in the air

Flowers are blossoming showing the nature`s flair
Chirping of the birds make morning bright
Animals are having fun venturing in the space vacated by men `s might
Nature is providing them full delight

Alas! the mightiest species are imprisoned in the precincts of their house
Their might has been challenged by the virus tinier than lice
Saddened by the loss of wealth and jobs they seem in despair
Anger, anxiety and helplessness writ large and showing their fear

Alas! This generation has no memories of the past
They have lived splurging displaying greed and lust
The first experience of the calamity
And they are going bust

Political, business and religious leaders are coming together
Distributing doles to become popular
Because Corona has also shown it is secular
Transcending boundariesof religion, sex, rich and poor

Wise amongst humanity call this nature's call
Nature remains bountiful with its total wealth intact
Reminder tohumanity to live in harmony with nature
And This to too shall pass
