Everybody Hopes Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Everybody hopes
Thursday,22nd November 2018

Why everybody hopes to attain heaven?
and remains consciously driven?
brings in spiritual fervor
and leads the life with an honor

let it be west
or for that matter, east
people know for sure an outcome
if they follow religious dictum and welcome

no religion preaches hatred
and clearly state
in their address and in religious books
"love is the only option" and stake their position

despite known facts of everyday life
we live a deceptive life
kill innocent and present the dark side of the humanity
this is certainly not liked by an almighty

if we couldn't make beautiful earth as heaven
what can be expected in another world even
if you can lead in a simple manner
it is all that we will see matters
