Glorious Past Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Glorious past
Monday,1st October 2018

The past looks glorious
as it made you famous
in notoriety and fights
when you were not right

you were taken for granted
and everybody wanted
You for the protection
and you responded with the quick action

now that past has gone
and now you feel alone
with nothing worthwhile to do
and stand for true values

present looks with boredom
here you need wisdom
and can miss seldom
you have no such freedom

life is full of thorns
and it always warns
of dangerous consequences
you take the time to seize the chances

even though the past had been the past glory
you were still the first to carry
the impression of being so quick to pick the thread
and come to the point and positively lead

Hasmukh Amathalal Mehta
