Helpless Humanity

They were a happy family of four

Father, mother and two kids to adore

Spending their days with fun and furore

Perhaps, they didn't want anything more.

But the deadly virus came

As an undesirable guest

It sneaked through the door

Making them suffer at its best.

Father was lucky, he got an ICU bed

Mother was not, she died on her own bed

The kids did not know what to do

With their mother dead

Nobody came to offer a prayer

Helpless humanity, what else to be said?

The father is still counting his last breath

The mother is lying cold

The kids are down with high fever

They have to suffer a little more.

They are crying but

The mother can't wipe their tears

God knows they get to eat anything

Or they are too small to cook!

The only savior is God 

The only means is a prayer

Let's pray that God at least

Save those kids, take care of them

As the dying mother had prayed the same.
