The Small Girl Turns Mother Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

The small girl turns mother
Sunday,4th July 2021

The small girl, later on, becomes a guest
in the unknown house to serve the best
takes along with her, the mother's tradition
to work with the same zeal and dedication

the mother may look worrisome
but may welcome an occasion
where she shall step out from the home
and go with the family fame

the women have such a talent and power
that they shall adjust with rains downpour
make in-laws impressed by her behaviour
and earn the good name, respect and honour

the little girl is worried only for the soulmate
and gets accustomed once gets full attention
her duty is to strengthen the personal relation

apart from serving the best tradition of the home
the girl becomes an actual mother
when time becomes ripe to offer
her devotional role

and calls upon with full enthusiasm
it is for the world to think over
and provide her safe shelter
where she can address and live with honour
and no one is attempting to discredit her
