Poem: Diseases

Blessings in disguise

By Mashhud UsmanPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

Diseases are blessings, we often forget,

For they teach us lessons, we must not neglect,

They remind us of our fragility and mortality,

And the importance of cherishing our vitality.

Diseases are blessings, for they bring us together,

In times of hardship, we find strength in each other,

They unite us in our struggles, and in our pain,

And help us find hope, in the midst of the strain.

Diseases are blessings, for they teach us empathy,

To understand the suffering, of those around us, so deeply,

They help us see the world, through different eyes,

And to appreciate the blessings, that we often despise.

Diseases are blessings, for they inspire innovation,

To find cures and treatments, for every situation,

They push us to explore, and to discover,

New ways to heal, and to recover.

So let us not curse, the diseases we face,

But let us embrace, the lessons they trace,

For in the end, it's not about what we endure,

But about the love we give, and the lives we ensure.
