The Power of Prayer

There is a prayer behind each happening

For God has his ways and we need to understand their meanings

If one looks out for positives, positivity one finds

Earthquakes, floods and pandemics are all his designs

The recent COVID-19 pandemic sets one thinking

How can so much suffering be justified

without even blinking

Is it not that the pandemic has made the world unite and work in unison

By adopting altruistic approach to control the gloomy situation

Quarantine is acting as a blessing in disguise

Where family values are taking precedence over building social ties

No touch technique is favouring on-line transactions

Bringing in transparency and doing away with corruptions

Population is learning to follow hygienic principles

Handshake is being avoided as 'Namaste' becomes invincible

Indoor activities are replacing one's gym activities

And that does save time and exposure to loud symphonies

Doctors and nurses who were being attacked the world over, in recent past

Are being looked up to and being appreciated for their crafty art

This is how God responds to the prayers of those who are doomed

With the balancing act of his he dispels the gloom
