No To Death Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

No to death
Friday,9th April 2021

Not frightened at all
at nature's call
death was knocking the door
I was wondering on the floor

why should I not block?
that knock
which was to take me away
and forbidding to stay

I decided to stand
and understand
the myth about the cessation of life
and taken to heaven

I shall resist
and insist
on the fair play
and walk miles away

I shall defy
and deny
any unreasonable attempt
that is prompted against

yes, I am determined
and have defined
my role as a human being
and shall always try to bring change

Dr Hasmukh Mehta
