The cosmic order comprises
Harmony among all things:
Nature, and man, and virtues.
Yes, our virtues hold us
Firm in oneness with Nature.
And the invisible thread
That holds our virtues
Is none other than love.
But we are disobedient
To the moral norms:
We defile Nature,
We act unkind,
We mask our true visages.
Hence, now, during this
Uncertain time of pandemic,
Cyclones and other blows,
Nature reverts to us.
No more do the pupils
Go to their institutes;
No more do the employees
Go to their workplaces.
Unemployment and starvation
Will, perchance, be in the offing.
We are going to face
Even more dire days.
We are supposed to be
Full of love, sympathy, and
Unity to make this turmoil
Seem less severe…
We're world citizens;
Let's protect our earth,
Let's protect our Nature,
Let's protect each life
To make this world
A less petrifying and
A less malevolent place for living.
Instead of desiring better tomorrow,
We need less harmful,
We need less uncertain
Future for all of us.
Love is the invisible cord that binds humans with nature, but unkind humans defile nature at the slightest pretext, hence suffer untold miseries and wrath of nature. The poem has drawn a picture of the pandemic era arising out of rampant spread of COVID-19 virus.
