Poem: Life After COVID-19

2020 is a tragic year.

This year mortality dawned upon us and we resided in fear,

Millions shed precious tears,

Due to the heart-tugging loss of their dears.

 

Because of this year being so influential,

In life, after 2020, people’s business would have gone down and they won’t be able to sell.

People might not have a place to dwell,

2020 will be an unbelievable story to tell.

 

In life after 2020 people will still have a great fear to meet their buddies.

Many people due to lack of money people will be begging on their knees,

Parents won’t have enough money to pay the fees,

All the development and urbanization due to less money will cease.

 

But wait, in life after 2020 nature will be thriving and lush,

On the roads, there will be no pollution or rush,

We will be able to see the tranquil, blue sky in the morning,

And hear the birds mellifluously sing.

 

In life after 2020, the water will be sparkling and blue,

So clear that we will see dolphins too!

Due to fear of interaction, intimacy would have to end,

We will hold on to our dear ones and relationship problems will mend.

 

2020 might have been sad for many,

But maybe it was necessary to force us to face today’s problems we see.

Nature made its own new blueprint for life after 2020,

Life after 2020 will not be a new normal of masks, but a new mind-scape,  you shall see.
