Light Up Within Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Light up within
Monday,10th June 2019

Until you have foresight
you can't light
the society, country or region
everybody has to show the lien

when we are seized with greed
and hatred to pay any heed
there is no scope for improvement
we are in a bloodbath at present

can you imagine purely on sentiments?
where nations in the continents fight?
can you ask them for what they are?
shedding the blood of innocent and creating fears

until we light up for the goal?
there can never be the true call
no vision to create the brotherhood
and no peace in the neighborhood too

millions have fled their homes
and how many have become unwelcome?
it is an open question for soul searching
we are heading for destruction

let one wish prevail
and fail
all the tendencies that are aimed to wreck?
we can assert and stake the claim
