Hope, in a Sonnet
August 10, 2021
COVID-19 the invader
Bringing pain to frightened victims,
Chaining houses with dwellers
Blowing out hope to merely a gleam.
Fear is nourished by panic,
The devil enticing people to give in.
Sorrow induces minds to be manic,
As death shows its hideous grin.
Blame, the generator of intolerance,
Sows the seed of doubt and distrust.
Conviction, the light blooming in darkness,
Maintains the fire of hope to never be drenched.
Impaired fate now gripped in hands
Finding a better future where our hope lands.
