It was the time, the impact of coronavirus was reducing.
After my morning coffee, I was reading
A newspaper in our verandah, suddenly I heard someone opening
The main gate of our compound and he was coming
Near me, this person comes regularly for plucking
Coconuts from our coconut trees in the garden and he was not having
Mask covering his nose and mouth. I asked why you are not following
The precautions the government was insisting,
To my question, his response was bewildering!
The air in our city was polluted with the smoke emitting
From the vehicles on the roads and the air conditioners were discharging
Gas and they were adding to
The pollution, now the coronavirus is travelling
In the polluted atmosphere, moreover this virus will not be coming
Near me because it is not knowing
Tamil language and I am not familiar with understanding
English language, further he said that you are watching
And listening to the English channels and getting
Frightened, I suggest you stop switching
These channels, this virus will not be coming
Near you, it may think that you are not understanding
English, I assure you it will be skipping
Your house, further he said almost every year some virus will be visiting
Our country, no virus can come near me because of the power for resisting
And fighting my body is possessing, and I was wondering about
His perception of the virus and the way he was explaining.
He also said his life’s experience has been enhanced by analyzing
The impact of viruses affecting human beings.
I felt the essence of his views on the viruses was interesting. |
