Corona Vaccination Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Corona Vaccination
Tuesday,11th May 2021

Nothing else occupies mind
thinking about pandemic but find
no positive response
I have nothing else to choose

I stand in the queue
and share the views
from the people standing
with unending wait

will it guarantee me life's cover?
will the pandemic be soon over?
only fewer had an answer
I was very much eager to know

'No system is not responding'
Vaccine stock is not arriving today
I felt disgusted and looked round
and found the people with despair

what is happening?
it was saddening
another try next morning
it is good if one is vaccinating

nature has played a secret game
no one can blame
if people are turning in unexpected numbers
there remains only frustration and anger
