The Sun rises in the east,
with that started the preperation of the grand feast.
Yes, It was New Year Day.
People were happy and were all gay.
Celebrations, wishes and presents all around.
People distributes sweets and decorated their ground.
2020, a year of luck, it seems,
lots of new hopes in the hearts could be easily seen.
New life, new mood new all beautiful souls,
but who knew ? The time would done the deadly fouls.
Time like tide and its powerful storm,
flies over the fate and shows its cruellest form.
Pages of written happiness suddenly torned apart.
Glass like hopes cracked, broke in pieces and parts.
Grey clouds like dancing death silently, slowly approached
and covered the eastern sky where the Sun that day arose.
At night, behind the white moonlight, all have seen a dark shadow,
a portrait of the Devil Dark that everyone that night saw.
Nature's sign it was all thought, something wrong it might surely brought.
Devil in disguise all have seen, attacked and cursed with a deadly Disease.
Heavenly Earth he turned into hell snatched all its charm and peace.
Topsy turvy all gone, freedom was no more a human thing
beast and birds in their cages, cells, went happy and they sweetly sings.
Oh ! What a dreadful sight it was
people were dying and dying in mass.
Punishment to mankind can we say ?
because of harming the Nature it may.
Animals and plants around
they all were safe and were sound.
God's act was good and great
all he had fixed the human fate.
Clean water, less pollution, less all the human sins,
who said 2020, just a year? But a Lesson to the human being.
This shall lead Mother Nature return and shall ultimately win.
