Not Later Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

“What does the woman need?
A layman asks question in this regard
What can be the best reward?
I think good treatment at home with nice words

She asks for nothing
But really expects something
Humanly behavior
And modesty with honor

We hear about atrocity
So much misbehavior with cruelty
Day time teasing
And acid throwing upon refusal

We are betraying
And at all levels trying
For character assassination
Failure upon building bond and relation

We need to have soft corner
So soon and not later
She deserved to be felicitated
At each level and honorably placed
