Corona Time: Vinod Gandhi

The world has turned into a hospital and
Every home is a special room.
The women moving around are nurses in PPE.
Everyone
Patient.
Gas cylinder is oxygen cylinder.
The hospital is without medicine
And yet it palpitates.
The death is certain, the life is not.
As if you did wrong,
To cover your face, a mask.
The gloves the doctor wears
Is like a precaution:
Not to leave fingerprints on a dagger.
Everyone if afraid of the other.
No taste, is it a dal or a ukalo?
Everyone washes hands,
Is it washing away life itself?
No permission to visit anyone,
Only the Yama,The deity of death
the authority to move around.
Only he is exempted from the lockdown rules.
Whole world is a hospital.
As if whole world is a mortuary 
of tomorrow.

Where?:Kisan Sosa

The mind is awake, where the eyes would go? Breaking the wall that protects,where would they run? Stuck to the nail of a question mark ,it struggles, The body, where would it go, leaving the body? Every city,village, the directions are closed,  Where would the moment, the time go         knocking the dreams,the thoughts? The mass, that suffers discrimination and indifference,faces the void, staring at the void, where would they go? This discouraged caravan of hunger,thirst and fatigue, The small feet walking on the long road,where would they go? At every step, eyes of compassion and love overflow, Will  get this life, begging, where would they go? કયાં? કિસન સોસા જાગી રહ્યું છે મન, નયન જાગીને જાય ક્યાં? રક્ષિત ભીંત ભાંગીને , ભાગીને જાય કયાં? પ્રશ્નાર્થના જ આંકડે એ છટપટી રહ્યું કે ખોળિયું ય ખોળિયું ત્યાગીને  જાય ક્યાં? હરેક શહેર ગામ દિશા બંધ ક્ષણ સમય ખ્વાબે ખયાલે દસ્તકો દાગીને જાય કયાં? વેઠી રહ્યાં સમૂહે વિષમતા વિડંબના સામે છે શૂન્ય, શૂ...

કોરોના પ્રેમસંક્રમણ

In the Corona times Without any salary Millions of workers set out on their feet to their native homes. Some of them before  Their death were not chanting Name of Rama , They were blabbering Bread, clothes ,house. If you lick honey, It barely tastes sweet. The respect only that much. All the cities of the world has exiled them, As Hidus exiled Muslims to Pakistan and Drove away Hindus to Hindustan. Corona  crosses all barriers. It spreads like The birds The wind The rivers and the seas It breaks all the  borders of the nations And spreads like the sky. Now there is a single solution. Human beings too Like  The wind The Birds And the  rivers Cross the borders And learn to love Human beings. કોરોનાનું પ્રેમસંક્રમણ જયેશ જીવીબહેન સોલંકી કોરાના કાળમાં વગર પગારે  ઘર ગામ ભણી ચાલી નિકળેલા લાખો મજુરો માથી કેટલાક મજુર  હે રામ ! હે રામ ! હે રામ નહીં મરતાં પહેલાં બબડતાં હતાં રોટી, કપડાં ,મકાન . મધ ચાટવાથી  મ્હોં મીઠું થાય એટલું જ માન સમ્માન!! છતાં...
