Strolling Out in Covid Life
Think twice or thrice if you wish to stroll,
And be merciful to your pitiful soul,
With many things ahead,
Than what one can think,
Where each of it awaits,
To make you sink
With sanitizer in hand and shielded with a mask,
You are a soldier on task,
With regular thermal screenings
And quick swab tests
You are seen doubtfully
For the traces of the unholy enemy (COVID-19)
If you come home safe and sound,
Sanitizing the belongings
Sanitizing the house,
You unknowingly put off lot many pounds
If ill fate accompanies,
And you cough or sneeze,
Consider your freedom ceased
With you being thrown into a 14 -Day quarantine
Where nothing would seem fine
Thus, think twice or thrice if you wish to stroll
And be merciful to your pitiful soul

This was a poem I wrote during the start of the pandemic, so all my paranoia can be felt in it😅
