Concept And Reality Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Concept and reality

We have made no inroad
But on the contrary added the load
The work of futility has been given top priority
And we have almost forgotten the creator, an almighty

What we term as success?
Accumulation wealth and full access
To the luxurious things within reach
Good name for an ability to teach on subject

Such things stand in your life
You have left behind razor sharp knife
Forgotten about painful past
And now enjoying life of first class

Was it or is the main purpose?
What have we come for? Just suppose
Is it not meaningless and burden on this beautiful earth?
When we did nothing and departed with death?

Do the animals not exist?
Do the dogs in street not eat?
Why do they need wealth when rest of the things are met with
Do we consider ourselves fit as human being?

Not all people are bestowed with fortune
But still we are basically human
At least in thought and action
We must have our own conception and realization
