Life Is...... Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Life is......
Thursday,23rd Dec,2021
When it seemed an end of the journey?
When it seemed there is no chance of recovery?
there was the ray of hope
prayers went on non-stop
taking me to the top
even though, there was no chance
I thought of surrender at once
putting all the efforts to reach the port
'Be firm with your faith' something I heard
never hesitate to face the death
What a reality?
one has to go back to an almighty
From where one had descended!
the illusion was superseded
the truth was rendered
If such was the gospel!
Why should one spell?
the world from inner heart
and suffer from the start
accept the truth and human art
Whoever is on this lovely earth?
he shall cease to exist with death
it is only trust and confidence
that makes him draw an inference
life is merely a chance
