Coping with Covid

by Bhaskaranand Jha Bhaskar

Caught between Covid teeth

Some fall down;

Some with guts and zeal

Usually stand up.

Among all who exist and rise

Only the fittest survive.

History smiles on paper

As mankind is known for eons

By its immune power—

The killer instincts

That offer many a time

A strong resort

To all those, badly affected,

And a retort,

A tight and hard slap

On the face of the callous time.

Pandemic comes and goes

Yet man often comes victorious.

Let deadly Corona play

Its foul game;

But it is here in the world

That we have to fight it down

To have a final victory

Against the blow of hard time.
