Visitor hours are fixed
Standing out side visiting hours just to start
Went in with flowers to greet the new mother
The baby was cute beautiful weight 9.8 pound 
Wrapped in a soft baby blanket 
Eyes were closed fist is closed 
Hungry crying wanted mother 
He does not know mother but wanted 
Some thing to satisfy his hunger.
Visited another friend 
When I said hello she didn't say a word.
I tried to take her hand she pulled it back.
She was having oxygen and IV on.
Seemed she was not interested. 
Probably she was in great aches and pains.
She did not respond .
She was not interested 
She was very sick.
She was not caring for my presence at all.
Some time the hallway is crowded with lost souls.
Family and friends stand with tears in their eyes.
The Hospital atmosphere and 
Smell makes visitors uncomfortable.
*Doctors and nurses are brave souls 
during the pandemic.
