Only holy cow

Nothing is left in my body
it can be observed by anybody
I catered the need of all human beings
"motherhood" stood as good name to bring fame
Today only flash is seen
my bones are visibly the pathetic scene
you can count from out side
think of it and decide
only holy cow on earth
milk it out and push to death
you have adored me alright
but made me, for life long, to fight
You have found only one weak creature
in the form of sister and mother
you take care only when in need
then refuse to take care and feed
many old age homes
they are ready to welcome
but what about my life's association
that is not weighed for human relation
I feel sore when see playing child
heart is filled joy to find
the status I enjoyed long back
where have I to go and stake for the same
Hasmukh Mehta
I loved reading the poem, sir, though it filled my heart with pain. You have beautifully expressed the emotional bonding of an animal from the cow's point of view. Sangeeta Das, Delhi, Apr 24,2020

I would like to translate this poem
I feel so sad to read this poem which is full of emotions, pain in the heart, bad days and the hope in leading a life... Padma, Khammam, Apr 24,2020
