(Covid 19) Be erudite not ignorant

I’m not but a child,

No bigger than your thumb.

Full Fledged with understanding,

Dripping in knowledge,

The booming voices of the physicians,

‘2 broom sticks away,

2 broom sticks away’

They chant.

Stone and lake water

Bathe your soiled fists

Rub, Rub and rub

It will go away.

Voices of warning

I can’t bring myself to ignore.

Ones of my kind,

Why don’t we hid warning

Only do we see,

When only at the brink of death,

Why blink through a husk,

When you could’ve widened your vision?

foretoken,

We shall bring distraction

To oneself and others

By our ignorance.

The wise shall listen

For even this is beyond their mastery,

While the foolish shall talk

Of not what they can comprehend

‘It’s better safe than sorry’

Let not your word contradict with your action.

Staysafe❤️

Be alert and vigilant

Lots of love❤️
