Not To Hold Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Do not hold back
Even sweet cake
If offered in birthday
Just make an occasion to repay

This develops good habit
To meet
The people and greet
Humanly it fits

What is there called obligation?
No, it is consolidation
Of feeling with relation
It gives very good excitation

Yes, what you repay
Is appreciated in any way
The gesture
Rebounds for sure

Give back
And do not stake
You did this or that
Leave it to luck or fate

We are human
And have legitimate concern
For our brethren
To share their feelings and burden
