If I were a doctor....

The whole world is suffering

from the severe pandemic

Many have lost their lives

From loved ones, deprived many.

No vaccine, no cure

just precautions and distancing,

Looking at the severity

My heart goes out to them.

I wish, if somehow I could control this

or maybe God grant me a wish

for just only a limited period.

And,

If I were a doctor

I would try my best 

to eradicate this killer disease,

serve the society selflessly

which has created a havoc

in people's lives and peace.

Making sure the needy ones

would be my priority,

as they are the ones

deprived of the basic amenities and 

are severely affected by it.

I do believe that

not just medications but,

the love, care and kindness

is needed to get them heal.

Oh Almighty!

strength and your blessings 

is what I need from you,

light and hope, I would

instill in them

as, will power and 

feeling of not to give up

will help them to stay strong

and overcome this fatal disease.

Soon this world would be free

from this virus,

Once again, everyone's face

would lit up with smile and joy,

peace and prosperity

prevail on Earth.
