On The Other Side of This Pandemic…
written by: Jennifer Brown Banks
On the other side/of this pandemic
There’s a message that persists
Perhaps
A divine lesson that exists
Beyond logistics?
Is it a wake up call
For us all?
A curse
For living outside
Of God’s laws?
A reminder
To live kinder?
A warning to repent?
Prelude
Of an apocalyptic event?
The dawning of a new day?
No one can clearly say…
But what I believe
For sure,
If we are to endure
And overcome this,
God must be the “cure”
For this situation
Is truly demanding,
And exceeds our human capacity
For understanding,
So at the end of the day
Let us bow our knees
And humbly pray
This virus away
