LOVE IN THE TIME OF CORONAVIRUS - BAT SOUP

People told me that the Chinese ate bat soup and concocted the biological weapon - 'Coronavirus;' this is world war three! I do not believe in this conspiracy theory. We all have brought this upon us. We actually lost our humanity a long time back. Only shame was left; now we have lost that too by hoarding tissue rolls, masks, sanitizers, and soaps.

With extreme nearsightedness, Mr. President is also guiding the country through a minefield like Mr. Magoo – the cartoon character. The only winners in this catastrophe are our dogs; at last they are getting to stay by the side of their owners twenty-four-seven!

The sky is dark, and we are scared - religion has left us, the coffin-bearers have left us, and our children have left us.

Still, somehow, a faint light is shining up there in the sky. I spotted my first Robin on my walk - spring has come in this frigid Wisconsin! I die every day for human touch; but I saw somebody unknown taking books from my little free library. I found kids’ chalk scribbling on the path, “Neighbors, we miss you!”

Love is not yet lost.
