We Are Hopeful Poem by Pravat Kumar Mandal

We Are Hopeful
P. K. Mandal

We are hopeful in the land of sickness
Since attacked by Corona the killer.
By its indomitable dominance
Gradually increasing its empire.

A rush of panic spreading day by day
Situation isn't yet out of control.
What the governmentsays we must obey
If we want to prevent Corona's role.

Sure, our world will be free from pestilence
Again we will feel the breath on shoulder
Again we will spend the hours in silence
Once again we will embrace each other.

In this way we will survive together
On the page of this blue world forever.
