Mutual Discussion Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Mutual discussion

Is it not senseless to talk about war?
When we are very far
From the truth about its consequences
And threaten to take a chance

Let us assume
And resume
The hostility
Between two countries

The use of atomic weapons can't be denied
Both the countries have always relied upon
On the possession of these destructive weapons
And always shown the inclination on its use

But both are at loss to explain
Why are the people suffering from?
The poverty and misery
When both claim to be rich and ready to use natural resources

Not even blade of grass shall grow
If the atomic weapons are allowed
To be used against the cities
It will only add miseries

Let good counsel prevail
And compel them
To avail mutualdiscussion
And improve the bilateral relation
