The Virus

Like a tempestuous storm, it comes through the night,
Ripping our normality to shreds.
Silent in tenacity, it burrows its way,
Through our every-day thoughts in our heads.

It closed all the schools and grounded the planes,
Ignorance created such lies.
When truth finally emerged, its talons reached out
And deposited fear in our eyes.

Without morals it preys, on the physically weak,
No prejudice against colour or creed.
It devours its victims with incredible strength,
To satisfy its insatiable greed.

And yet through the darkness, there has to be hope,
To beat it at its cowardly fight.
As humanity prevails, over this wretched force
People….. in kindness…. unite.
