Corona Virus

Corona Virus, were you self-born?
Were you a creation of someone?
Unseen to the eye and unheard to the ear
Your birthplace, Wuhan known for tear.
All know that you did not descend from the sky
Nor were you a sky-lab for fears high.
Scientists invented vaccines for all viruses
Not to let any nation fall into crises.
You differ in your annihilating powers,
Carriers to spread death-fears and death-tears
So small that seen microscopically
To cause always jitters globally.
All over the earth, you are the earthquake
With tremors every inch to everyone's shake
Irrespective of man-created barriers.
Lows and highs with no and cozy shelters
You are the pandemic, the merciless killer
With infection to all alike, a leader and a tiller,
All the people find a way to keep you out
In unseen shackles in no doubt,
Staying indoors under the lock-down
To empty roads, to leave you sans crown
Police-brothers, friendly officials for service sure
God-like-doctors with all personnel to cure,
The infected, and treat them recover
Without caring for their lives ever,
Against you, it is the battle worldwide,
You are power but conquest is on man's side,
You can let the victory go to the human,
Our leaders for their service yeoman.

                                   Fair is love in race, the sacred emotion 
                                     No ill feeling has in its lovely grace.
                                     Its fashion sows only holy passion 
                                                  Fair is love in race.

                               Love grows and glows on a permanent base 
                                  The pair knows no failure in its mission
                               No gains as goals, no pains in hearts to face.        

                                     Love sojourns to the love destination
                                    Like the sun in its journey with its rays      
                                       Like the star to twinkle in its station
                                                   Fair is love in race.

                                             His treasure-like-essence holds all torches,
                                              For light-like-delight in welcome gesture.

                                             All his wealth he shares and so he teaches
                                           Like the flower spreading fragrance-feature
                                                In selfless service, he duly searches  
                                                             For goals in stature.
