THE DREADED  RED...NOT FOR YOUR EYES ONLY

 

Sun in his usual dawny ascend, all in simmering heat,
I was murmuring,despising a slumber so incomplete,
Disturbed slumber perturbed me no less,in all retreat,
Alas! I can’t open my eyes in full,am I blind in replete.

Something struck in my hypothalamus,straightaway,
Being an oculist,I am sure what struck me in the eyes,
Day in and day out,I deal  ocular problems in sway,
Here I have now a problem in hand,sorry, in the eyes.

The dreaded Madras eye,as it is jocularly christianed,
Profuse watering masking the vision,asking for remedy,
Lids swollen,white of the eye totally suffused and red,
Worser quite often, both eyes get in transient tragedy,

Virus in relentless pursuit,often in rentless occupation,
Epidemic at times,nuisance and disturbing in unison,
Tearing you apart, tearing in profuse,sans cessation,
Marauder innocuous early,may show corneal invasion,

Conjunctivitis,oft referred as red eye in local parlour,
Three days to five days shelter,virus  in transit flight,
Next victim you,or your kith and kin, I am not sure,
Dreaded red,for your eyes only and me,albeit in fright.
