In Absence Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Absence of words



For poets, the words are treasure

And makes sure

That expression comes in right form

With so much of inspiration and causing no harm



The sky has large horizon

Anything can be won

From the look at empty space

Only you have to race quickly



Poet without word is like soldier without weapon

Where to fire and how to defend the nation?

You have responsibility to defend your domain

And that should always be pain and may remain



The words must flow

Like river water goes

In an orderly manner

And strike at the banks with alteration in path



So strike hard

With memory in words

For the scene in mind

And conveniently find



The natural outburst from mind

May always look pleasant even to blind

The rhythm may be liked by ears

But absent of words may create fear
