The Lockdown
While I stay behind closed doors
It gives me time to rest more and more
It offers me opportunity to pray and adore
God almighty whose blessings I implore.
The lockdown has helped me analyse and see,
The beauty around and deep within me;
It has made me mindful and aware
Of God’s great love ,patience, kindness and care.
The locked in period is time to trace
The blessings we have received and His grace;
It’s time to ponder over our frailties and change
Ourselves ; to live within our means and range.
The lockdown helps us read, relax and recreate
Thoughts positive and our feelings state;
Express them to family and friends
In time, right now before life ends.
The journey during the pandemic has been long;
We can change it into disharmony or a song.
It’s up to you and me to find meaning and see
A rare blessing : a part of our destiny!
