Through Covid_19, With Coco As My Constant Strength!

Maybe this is how...

Our life shall pass....

You'll travel places & remember us

While we'll carry you...

In All Forgetfulness of Love!

.

My Beloved can Give...

More than you can Think....

More than you can Dream....

Provided that you have....

Faith Within!!!

.

& then one day a day shall come

When pain shall reveal the beauty of your soul...

& you shall be

His Song of Hope!

These poems & pictures are all on diff timelines. The first one is Cocos life drawing sketch, while the 2nd was when Atul was out on work & usually when he sees something beautiful he video calls Coco & me to say how much he would have wanted us to be there with him, knowing my 19years Of chronic pain that makes travel a challenge for me. But how in these times I wouldn’t even have fathomed that being in Mumbai itself, Atul would be staying away from us, as he is out every single day documenting life through these covid_19 times & we both felt it’s better he stays away as families who are positive & quarantined their pets are taken away in shelter homes & the thought of leaving Coco would just be too much to bear for us.

The second poem for me deeply resonated, when today being out with Coco for a walk, I once again drained out badly. My beloved did something to help me through, knowing how harsh our Indian summers are, but for some reason till Coco & I were back home, the harsh light was diffused with a canopy of clouds & no sooner was I home, I just sat down, draining all life from my head to toe knowing very well that I’ll pass out.

I know how pain makes you realise the vulnerability of ones body yet the indomitable strength of spirit I receive from coco. I know the pain of many who go through hunger of body in these times especially those who's daily income has come to a stop, as for me it’s a challenge to cook & when I don't get the necessary fuel my body shuts.

But there’s a force, that makes sure that though the sun is harsh up in our sky, yet he softens the blow. I would never know why some people would die due to hunger, but I pray, that this force be with all
