Heart's Mirror Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Heart's mirror
Thursday,23rd April 2021

'It's not what you look at that matters,
it's what you see...'— Henry David Thoreau

You have heart's mirror
that creates an error
it may be an object very minor
but it develops joy or terror

it is the perception
that compels you for the adaption
you look at the relation
and that makes you think with updation

you look at some matters
that offers you nothing
you pay a scant respect
and react at nothing

but if you see it with keen interest
it serves you best
it develops taste
and you relate it from a different angle

this is how the theory goes on
your heart has shown
kindness and aptness
to bring cheers on the face

Dr Hasmukh Mehta
