Kinship
Loving humans
Avoiding being bestial
Propagating love to establish
Humanity

Pandemic
Viral disease
Infects respiratory tract
Washing hands prevents infection
Corona

Droplets
Incessantly pour
In full galore
Forming a cascade of
Rain

Unrequited
Between humans
Colouring and painting
And resonating the soul
Love
