An invisible foe
lurks in every corner
within the air we breathe
within the world we reside.

Days passed as centuries
of agony
of fear
and of human sufferings.

On the frontlines,
doctors and nurses
fought an  endless battle
against this enemy, Coronavirus.

2020 a year of change,
a year of turbulence.
How many lives did it claim?
how many people did it impact?

Let us not forget those
who labored to save lives
who helped in one's darkest hour of need
who kept each other in safety.

In December
a door of new possibility opened,
with the proclamation
of an vaccine.

Let us not despair
for hope is in the air!
Let us rejoice
for this virus is vanquished!

Normalcy will return
as a flower in eternal bloom.
