THE WORLD WILL HEAL

I know fear now lives in every head like a ruthless master
Making a cough enough to bluff the security of safety
Making a sneeze freeze hearts of comfort
…shattering confidence in the healthy
I know just the mere mention of the two out of the three syllabic word –
…coro,
…makes many scamper for safe shelters in sanitizers
But relax
…time travels through odds
Every challenge gets bored
…and eventually shows its structure through mother nature
…and climbs the shelves of history to clear our paths
…for good living
So we’ll beat this

II
Just wash your hands at every chance
Touch not your face in dangerous times
Keep your safe distance from others
…and stay at home if you can
Kill the loneliness by reading a book
Laugh your tensions off by watching a comedy
Challenge your mind by taking up courses
Think not of the fears by learning other languages
Google makes a great companion in these times
And if you need to speak to a friend
…dial that number
…voices surely shape happy choices
We’ll surely beat this

III
Think of these days as days of reflection
…days of appreciation of nature’s shape
…with its different characters
You’re such a blessing to be in this space
…where the world holds hands to battle one cause
History records you as a worthy soldier
…as earth heals its sores to help battle our scare

Just a simple Ghanaian trying to find the best in our society. I may be fun, I may be interesting, I may be funny, I may even be foolish or intelligent, but it is all based on the mood in which you find yourself. I believe our minds make us who we are. Know that, pain, no matter its 'unbearability', is transient. Unburden or delight yourself for a while in my writings please. And all corrections, advice and opinions are welcome. Know that you are the king, queen or royal on this blog. :)

Old world is gone. Whole world is falling down. New world is here. I pray the four corners of our world work together. Our leaders must work as one. Send medicine, food and water to the places in need. All of us must lead with kindness, concern and listen to each other. One people and one earth. My Ojibwa belief. We must work as one and maybe. We can find peace and the cure for this deadly sickness. If we don’t work together, our world. We will fall, one country by one. I pray my dear friend. We overcome this and the the world befriend each other.
