Pandemic

Quaid Uz Zaman

If prayer houses are
safer not
what places are safer then?
when chambers close down
hospitals deny the treatment
no vaccine proper in hand
when PPE, ventilators -ICU not enough
when the air is heavy
with tears and sighs
when isolation -lockdown a daily gossip
when there is a breath
hard
and a cry for 0xygen
when neigbours shut the doors
funerals feared
when graveyards hesitate
to receive the dead
curses-crises paranoia on
calm and quite in all the front
when it is dark and less a light
i cannot paint it as full bright
all i can say with a heart pure
"in His Mercy we have a cure".
