One Among Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

One among
Sunday,1st November 2020

I was housed at racecourse road, air force station
hardly any distance to mention
her residence at No.1 racecourse
she was there as an embodiment of a powerful force

she will stand for a while
stand at the gate with a charming smile
address little audience
and enter the residence

I saw her emerge as a powerful woman
the war on two fronts gave a boost to the nation
India was never powerful with recognition
Indo-Russia friendship treaty made a formidable

force internationally
she not only proved an able leader
but brought the enemy to knees later
agree to an instrument of surrender

and lay down the arms there
she deserves to be called a mother
Goddess Durga
or whatever people could call her
she was no doubt indisputably a strong leader
