Grow Full Size Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Grow full size
Thursday,19th December 2019

It is painful
and turns sorrowful
when someone very dear
departs from the scene

we plant
and want
it to grow full size
but sometime, it is seized with disease

the plants meets with slow death
we watch it breathlessly
and witness its disappearance
this makes us tense

we have family and kids
and they lead us to happiness
but when some meets with tragic death
it shakes our faith

the cause may be anything
but it affects us to bring
the grief and sadness
it is visible on the face

we need to realize
and anyone is cut to size
it is natural phenomena
and takes place without any natural agenda
