Our Hope Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Our hope
Wednesday,26th June 2019

I look back to the life span
and try to scan
the path followed
and towed the lines

why was it?
that I did not feel fit
to follow the righteous path
and took peaceful breathe

why did I not see the divine light?
and acted right
with no lust for worldly desires!
and admired the truest one

I feel deep grief
and wanted relief
but how come it may grant me respite!
as I have done nothing worth to delight

Yes, we all know about the futility of human beings
that always try to bring
some false show
and never grow with the need of life's journey

Hasmukh Mehta
