My world

I am in a world which wants to change the basic rules of survival

And is now looking at revival

I am in a world which harped on intelligence and power until the arrival

Of a tiny undetected virus going viral

Now do I control environment with my clout and aptitude

Or should I thank my stars and God and show some gratitude

 

I am in a nonpareil era where repercussions are in view

We must take cue

I am in a nonpareil time where rectifications are due

Or else we will rue

Now should I synchronize my moves with nature or continue callous feud

Or should I thank my stars and God and show some gratitude

 

I am in a circumstance quite crucial critical and tough

The going can get rough

I am in a circumstance where the reins are managed from above

He is flattening the curve

Now should I go back to old mischief and misuse my latitude

Or should I thank my stars and God and show some gratitude

 

I am in isolation in the best of situations there are

My friends are not far

I am in isolation in connect with all the contacts I star

My moods don’t mar

Now should I show entitlement and voice platitude

Or should I thank my stars and God and show some gratitude

 

I am in a lockdown in the best of places to be

My home is my sanctuary

I am in a lockdown with the best of people for me

I love my family

Now do I grumble about being stuck and display attitude

Or should I thank my stars and God and show some gratitude
