Death And Poet Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Death & poet
Sunday,23rd May 2021

If death is only the threat
I shall love to greet
embrace lovingly and face
its cruel trace

why should I stop writing?
if there is infighting
about death and survival
let it be the fate of as an individual

I needn't worry
and carry
the uncertain fate
and be called ' the late'

I am poet
who shall never remain quiet
but put on writing
even if death is dating

if the truth can't be highlighted
the life can't be equated
for the fortunate
and unfortunate

one day I might depart
with my dying art
I shall not stop
till the life and death gap is filled
