Special Entity Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Special Entity

Rating: 5.0


Nothing to compare with grand mother
As if some angel is living on earth for us to bother
With little sweet in hand and running after children
Falling on ground and again up to chase even

Why has she been glorified?
Her figure in family is very much magnified
House may look ghost mansion
As she is only one in house as symbol of unison

She has before her full garden
Son and in daughter-in -law with many children
Each one trying to get close and shower
The much needed love reserved for fewer

I feel whole world in her lap
I used to sleep sound with her tap
I will slip away from worry land
To go in oblivion known as dream land

Why grandmas and granny's are so popular
Even though their roles are not similar
One is with children by right
Other one has to make it by fight

Children miss both in person
They have close proximity with reasons
Grandma is always there to concede demand
Granny is painted by mother as special brand

There is something special in their eyes
Affection and love is in abundance and flies
What she after all deserve to be counted?
Not abused at all and forcefully hunted

Now we witness total change
They suffer and get ignored with the age
Confined in home and feel as if in the cage
Children and especially close ones shout at them with rage

Many old age homes have come into being
Not all the parents happily sing
They have their horrified tale
Happy here with no worry to pass or fail

Heartfelt and extremely thoughtful. The poet has made an objective study about the change of people's attitude towards their grand parents- treating them with indifference and disdain. Thanks. Why grandmas and granny's are so popular Affection and love is in abundance and flies Now we witness total change They suffer and get ignored with the age

good poem... all old people are full of wisdom. our grandmothers are not just our friends and advisers. they are our great philosophers who always love us more than their own children and wish us to have all planet treasures...in our hearts and cleaver mind in our heads

Marietta Mardirossian I really love it, and you made me miss my grandmother, she used to comb my hair and take good care of me! Grandmothers are precious treasures to keep, ignoring and not respecting them is the biggest sin! I have many indian friends, they used to teach me the hindi language, I have my notebook with me, I have written important things, but still I can't speak it! And yes let us enjoy friendship and poetry!
