IMPRRISONMENT

Imprisonment

Comes June

My lighthearted heart hums a tune

To see my old folks back home

The annual ritual

Is like a carrot on the stick

That gives me the incentive to go on

And on…over the hills and vales

Thorns and Roses.

This time  Corona, the  king of the Globe

With its unmistakable crown and scepter

Pronounced a verdict

Lock down !stay put!!

Keep distance!!!quarantine!!!

Trespassers to the order

Will be done with.

And here I feel so cheated

A plaintiff seeking justice from Heavens.

Waiting to fit into my mother’s heaves

Giving her my comforting heartbeats

I’ve never ever felt so enchained.

Angry weary

Dark and dreary

Like a caged lioness!
