Covid 19: A Time To Reflect

For all the devastation
It is bringing to humanity
Covid19 is giving us the time
To reflect about life while on quarantine
To dwell on its realities
To look at its many facets
With more attention and seriousness

It may have come unannounced
Taking us by surprise
Catching us all off-guard
With little defence to protect us
From its onslaught
Giving us little time
To prepare for the worst

But for those of us who are safe
And staying at home with our family
This pandemic is a time to evaluate our life
To reflect on its meaning
To introspect on how we have live it
All these time before the advent of Covid19

Despite its viciousness to human life
Covid19 is giving nature time to heal
From the damage that us-humans have caused for centuries
It is giving the Earth we live in
Time to recuperate
From the pollution we scatter in seas and waters and air around us

It is bringing us a lesson
That life is shared by all living things
That man and nature are symbiotically dependent on each other for protection
That life is a balance of good and bad in our world.
