When The Whole World Is Brought To A Standstill Poem by Bernard F. Asuncion

When the whole world is brought to a standstill,
Every move we make is just limited;
We cannot do anything we want to,
For everyday movement is restricted.

As everyone feels the global gridlock,
Busy streets become barren and empty;
The economic crisis is in view,
Leaders are desperate in each country.

All are in a standoff situation,
Nobody is greater than the other;
The rich and the poor both become equal,
Because the hidden riddle takes over.

Each and every nation is in deadlock,
Finding a solution to the puzzle;
Doctors and scientists are mystified,
Just trying hard to do their duties well.

We should all think, ponder, and meditate,
We should all submit to the Father's will;
Let love spread in the hearts of the people,
When the whole world is brought to a standstill.
