With One Message Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

With one message
Sunday,23rd May 2021

Let us frankly
and admit openly
nature has turned against
to the best interest of humanity

we created temples
we preferred churches
we prayed in mosques
we stood in queues

our mind was running elsewhere
we wanted the people should feel fear
they should bear the pain
and remain concerned

an almighty sent us with one message
manage this beautiful planet and don't misuse
live with a brotherly attitude
and always forbid the illegal trade

we exceeded all the limits
promoted hatred
invited natural wrath
and pushed innocent to death

who shall hear
our prayers
we have deceived even an almighty
and now suffer the absence of mercy

one disease after another
it saddens us further
how many have vanished from the scene?
if we mend now, good shall be seen later
