Closed Eyes-Mother Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Closed eyes-Mother
Saturday,21st November 2020

What can be more heavenly?
when you think of humanely!
go outright for the right-thinking
and just remain to blink

she is not the only angel
but well behaved
a social entity
in each household universally

who can deny her role?
as that of stolen glory
for a person
who has wanted nothing on this earthly heaven

when she closes her eye!
the world comes to a grinding halt with tears
that flow constantly without a word
We do not hear the human agony

I felt it
as if the entire world has ceased
and there is nothing more to release
to please other human beings as well

we may grieve at her loss,
but chose
to remain always committal
as an obedient individual

Dr Jadia Hasmukh
