Analysis of Life and death



“If there is heaven on earth then why to search somewhere”
It is here, it is here and it is here but only to dare
If we can make it really worth living
Nothing will come in the way for believing

Who does not like freedom?
It shall be denied seldom
God sent us as free and independent
We should make lively and live in present

Freedom is dear to animals even
They resist yoke if put all of sudden
We are human being and understand its value
Let us abhor violence and give people their equal due

It has philosophical touch
Pride and honor is involved as such
If it has sentimental attachment
No one should term it as rebellion movement

It is against for forceful occupation
The term applied stands in relation
Not outside force must prevail
As it is futile and bound to fail

Motherland is considered as sacred
We firmly believe and definitely are led
Why it is then resisted at home front?
When our own representatives make us to bear the brunt

Life has been made difficult to live peacefully
No where you can go and establish successfully
We are not talking of particular region or ideology
We, the people, are made scapegoats and not at all happy

It is good to feel at home inFree State
It is equally important to have liberty to state
But how do you feel when someone else seals your fate?
Real steps are not taken even today least to say very late

I may salute to that possibility
If can be converted into reality
Why blood must quench the thirst of earth?
When we all are uncertain about life and death

Hasmukh Mehta

am an ex-serviceman from Indian Air force. I joined Oriental Insurance Company and retired from there too in May, 2007. I have been graduated from Punjab University. I hold technical qualification like Diploma in Radio/engineering .I have done English and Hindi stenography as well. I had mastered the art in Morse telephony too. I am associated with several welfare organizations and served long time as Union leader too. I am at present working as hobby writer. I write poems on various subjects and invite suggestions from all the quarters. I have written one memoir named “As I see it” and ready for publication. One interesting part of writing I would love to share with all my reader friends. I am not sure weather it may be the same case with all as I do not want to be caught in any controversy. When I sit on my personal computer, there is absolutely no thought in mind as to what is to be picked up as thought and written. These all things I leave it to the discretion of almighty to fill my mind with relevant ideas. So far I have been graced by Him and as result able to compose about 4000 poems. I have be awarded with 4 achievement award from the www.ezinearticles.com for successfully meeting with their standard. I am writing on many sites so as to be associated with reader friends all over the world. I am thankful to all those who have supported me in my initial days. more…
