Corona - A Divine Message Poem by Nazmul Haque

Corona - A Divine Message



It's only we....it's only all of us...
Who are being locked down
Just like animals in the zoo
In the invisible-cages of life.

Oh! look at the open blue sky
Open wide as it always has been!
Look at the green leaves of the trees
Dancing softly with sweet gentle breeze!
Look at the happy little birds in the air
Joyfully singing with the freedom of hearts!
Even the dogs are free to go..
Marching on proudly on the streets
In front of my petty home-come-prison!

Oh! It's only we....it's only all of us...
Who are being locked down
Just like animals in the zoo
In the invisible-cages of life.

Haughty Arrogance pollutes the river
Of our hearts,
Humanity now crawls upon the filthy dust,
What a stange kind of life-race
we are running after!
Don't really know what we are running for,
How longshould we run?
When this running should stop? ..
We know nothing of it!
We don't have time to stop,
Really have no time to make a little pause,
And have a sit in silence
Under the shaow of life and think-
"Life is the sweetest gift from God".
Have we ever thought with quiet heart,
What is the true meaning of Life?

Contaminated with curse as we are
Turning our back aginst God Himself!
Little petty helpless creatures!
How dare we forget the mercy of Him!
It's a shame we engage in a battle
Of back-biting each other,
We conspire to make us look high
By making others low.
We don't give a dam of what others feel,
There is no place for love and sympathy,
Only envy, enmity, enormity entangle us all.
Little girls raped, innocent people
Shot dead on borders,
Capitalism snatches away food
from the mouths of poor...
The poison of our pervert heart
Doesn't escape even our mother Nature!
We destroy green trees,
Devour innocent animals,
Pollute pure air, water...
We just swallow up the very source of Life!

Even God punishes us from Above
When we fill the cup of our sins
With our own crimes!
Even Mother Nature has a limit
To endure such endless cruelty!
Its her turn now.
Our bitter days locked inside home,
When Death unfolds its claws wide open
Everydayour near and dear ones
Just pass away once forever.
Nature showed us how tiny, how little
We are by vanquishing us
With a far little invisible Virus.

Corona is a pendamic, as WHO says it,
But lets look at it the other way.
There is a lesson in it, I think.
Nature wants to teach a kind of lesson
that we all ought to learn.
...We all are man,
But lets try to be a little more human,
Let us be a bit more compassionate
to Nature, to every little ceatures,
To everyone around us.

Corona is a test from God,
Lets testify ourselve and pass it over.
Corona is a warning from Nature
Lets check it out and be self-alert.
Corona a fire for the Soul
Lets burn us out and purify ourselves.
