The invisible battle
A being of microscopic dimensions
It has attacked all civilizations;
Regardless of the degree of development
It permeates environments at any time.
Insignificant and rudimentary organism
It depends on other beings to survive;
Melifluously invades cell composition
And it multiplies until the host dies.
Air is your transmission vehicle
And he always welcomes those who give him a hand;
People travel around the world
And he doesn’t want to leave or leave.
We waged a silent war
Against a mortal and invisible enemy,
It made us feel how sensitive life is
And our most difficult recovery.
Several quarantines have been enacted
That has lasted for dozens of days;
Aim to achieve total isolation
And prevent the spread of this deadly virus
Around the world they have emptied entire cities;
Its inhabitants retreated to their homes,
They closed doors and windows, and turned on the taps
To sanitize contaminated hands.
The lack of work and income caused hunger;
So that life is nourished by what each one eats,
Many people have to go out to earn income
And challenge the lethality of the virus in this strife.
Winning the virus that hangs in the air is a silent war,
To be fought with some powerful vaccine;
We hope the success of science research
While confined we wait for her with patience.
