Humanity Humbled

Expressions of compassionate caring For fellow beings either sick or dying Empathy felt for many loved ones too, Struggles in current age of coronavirus Frightfully unexpected and unprepared.

With new isolation and social distancing Connections and interactions, limited, Lives thrown asunder, new adaptations, Humanity humbled by nature’s effects Having less control than once imagined.

Social changes and communications Daily habits aberrated in differences Created by technology and innovations, Distance learning and telemedicine New normalizations in necessity’s wake.

Reliance on science, our only choice, Realizing it must lead to normalization With facts and truths needing to be heard, Humanity strengthened, as it is humbled.
