Starshine! - Shampa Chowdhury

Starshine

Lock down you say

Nay if I may...

Isolation is God's consolation

It's not vacation

It's our resurrection

Emerge from the earth

To understand the dearth

Of love, affection and care

The dark and the hideous

They thought they had it all

Until came a darker but brighter force to stall

Arrogance, power, greed and hate

Treachery, betrayal, our fate

As the world cried

God said, it's still not too late my mate,

For the good to rise and shine

I grant you my forces divine!

Reach out to those suffering

For they are looking for the light

Born is a Dhruvatara so bright!

So here we are to stay

Isolation, lock down, vacation nay...

With a  heart filled with love and care

With hope and courage we too dare

It's not too late as said God

We can heal the earth

Of its dearth

Someone has to do it you know

So here we are with a bow

To hear all you want to say

As we live again  another day
