Eid Greetings in Lockdown

As the month of Ramadan advances towards its end
With restrained bodies and retrained souls
We enter the celebration of Eid
What Eid, they say?
Its lockdown
No congregational prayers
No get-togethers, no hugs
It's 2020 the year of distancing
Prayers I say, together we pray
Within each heart deeper than before
Love for the whole of humanity, not just you and me
This Eid is special, for we feel what we cannot do
Peace and health for humanity
Eid greetings from me to you.
