Even If Offer Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Even if offer
Saturday,27th April 2017

If there is heaven on earth
it is here
with the mother
to die and breath

it is not an imagination
but pure and sacred relation
that she shares with the children
and show them real heaven

what has she in the store?
only love to offer
and share
the burden coming out from anywhere

Oh, mother! I dare not
to see in your eyes and get caught
while assessing my gratitude
towards your attitude

nowhere I shall get the peace
or any heavenly place
where I shall breathe peacefully
and sing about you happily

even if I offer my whole of the body skin
I shall not be able to wipe out my sins
if I remain ungrateful in your old age
I should be condemned on history pages
