400th Mark Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal
400th Mark
Completion of 400th poem was not great feat or mark
Many new ideas flashed in mind and worked as spark
Raising voice at roof top doesn’t make it worth while
No one will share ideas or walk with you for a mile
Over year and half ago I was virtually nothing
Only vague ideas of verses to translate as something
There was hidden fear that readers may reject
Still presentation of new ideas was only object
Nature was appealing when I went round
Something new was in offing and always found
Bird’s sweet voice and cool breeze were appealing
Mind was set up on it with earnest effort for revealing
It was so difficult to go in for poetic words
Sought the strength and blessings from the lord
World at large seemed so big and enterprising
Nothing could stop me from little writing
“Go to hell” or “never dare to call again”
Funny comments with abusive words main
I detested the weapon with its sharp edge
My be I lacked enough skill or knowledge
Many offered me with their kind comments
Advised to stand fast and not to lament
How can I be ungrateful to their advices?
I had to offer gratitude and only promises
Some one commented I was killing poems
Had no teeth, wisdom and lacked rhythms
I sincerely thanked them to improve upon
To write simple poems and simply carry on
New people, thoughts with old or new readers
They were by no means less than leaders
I was novice and had to act as learners
To gain and part with is the reality for beginners
I have followed simple theme and plot
It may not be up to mark or falling short
I may try to uphold values and ideas defend
Will not stoop so below to alienate or offend
How poetry does impresses up on mind?
What type of lessons or new things we find?
Poetry, I thought is the holiest approach among all
I enjoy its fruit when sit back and recall
400 can’t be the finish line for a indefatigable thinker like you…with always a stint of humaneness and educative…many more thousands of 400 we’re looking for…forward…thanks Sir 10+ Ms. Nivedita UK

Continue to write my friend - some poems may punish us and some may grace us. It is all good, inspiring and congratulations on 400-500+ poems. I know personally the energy that can go into a poem. Was every dot and titlle in place, we think afterwards- was it worth the while. YES, YES, YES all poetry is worth the while. Perfection is not the key - it is the impression on the reader and the release of energy from the poet, let the jeni out of the bottle, write more. You have a diverse range of ideas, derived I can tell from first hand knowledge.
Nothing more left for me to say, Excellent! and congratulation in your great accomplishment. Another 400 new poems are awaiting in your brilliant mind. 10+++, Your masterful works give you away, Love and Peace...
