Few Could Remain Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Few could remain
Thursday,19th September 2019

Had we been the angels from heaven?
it would have been better even
to know nothing about worldly pleasures
and remain not concerned with full assurance

we were same since centuries
fully aware of miseries
and still opting for the world leisure
and involve knee-deep for the future

we are made of clay
and swayed over
by the personal attachment
and present it

somebody's death moves us
breaks our trust
and curse comes out for being left out alone
whole life is wept over and remaining too has gone like that

it is very difficult
as it is inbuilt
only few could remain unconcerned
and turn the mental status

on the contrary,
it has become necessary
to feel contented with whatever you have
and give no vent to all these things if you don't give in
