Palace In Dream-Child Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Palace in dream-child dreams
Saturday,5th December 2020

You have memory
to carry
till an end of the journey
by the grace of an almighty

what can child think of?
and put an ink for the wishes
parents cater to the need
and pay heed

the child has no eagerness
because everything is at an ease
she or she need not face
or make a chase

the child builds a castle in the air
with the intention pure
she sees the bright future
with all the comforts for sure

old memory remains in mind store
even if she has grown more
the reality doesn't change
but she has a fresh memory with the passing of an age

what gold palace has to do?
when I am passing through
the pain and anguish
life shall stand finished like this only

the child at a later stage puts views
the gold palace is only for the few
whereas millions suffer
with frustration, anger and hunger
