Hometown Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Hometown
Tuesday,30th October 2018

Yes, the home place is very dear
we remain close and very near
many might have witnessed the sea-shore
and loved it more

you still long and crave
and behave
in a childish manner
and utter in an earnest

you have childhood friends
who were with you till you left the place
the locals who loved you much
and even tried to teach in an affectionate manner

You feel like staying there
and miss it forever
that is bonding and an attachment
that makes an emotional moment

that shall make an impression
to preserve the lifelong relation
not only with the hometown
but with the people known or unknown

Hasmukh Mehta
