On the streets
Where the car screech
passes a lane
where a lady stands
under the vast sky
lost in thoughts of unknown
looking in dismay to the grey sky
no soul meets the eye
though the shops filled by screen
Upon which kids used to lean
show the savouries
but no stories
the lady watches the lane
a few pass in the rain
coughing and sneezing
as they near by
she realises the runny nose beside
In seconds she leaps
outside her story of displease
look the cold is enough
but who would be rough
grieving a moment ago
how could sneeze bring her out
out of memory lane
a moment ago she was teary
but that runny nose
brought her in store
a medical store
buying the medicines
a pack of sanitiser
a box of masks
and checked her score
she prayed in mind
hope they are vaccinated by
a sneeze can have huge power to say so
those teary eyes
who saw no one close by
suddenly realised
she wasn’t walking alone anymore
have faith in almighty
your not alone
look around
germs are knocking on the door …
