Analysis of Stay with



Pray in open if you don't find time
In field, on the way or in hut some times
You will be heard and attended to
It is almost the sincere prayer and true

We often say “He is omnipresent”
Not in a blade of grass absent
Look beyond the sky and down the earth
You will find presence even after death

I hear “Allah -o- akbar”* from near by mosque
“I come to your refuge” high tone recitals from people's queue
Both voices merge in morning's silence
People come to know about Almighty's presence

Just listen to attentively the magnitude of call
It is not from priests but from cuckoo on tree tall
What an arrangement to feel in the early morning!
Same way to feel when sun descends in the evening

Many of my friends insist” Jesus is only one”
My Muslim friends unequivocally claim” He only and no one “
We live in same locality with honor and respect
In no way come in to clash when go for prayer's act

I close the eyes and ask for forgiveness
“For whatever acts with total innocence”
I find no excuses and surrender totally
It finds me in happiness really

I find prayers for five times a day
A perfect way of asking mercy in a good way
For he is the creator of all the living being
With benevolent heart and king of kings

I read those sentences and sink in deep silence
Almost feel divine with elegant touch and presence
I find him in me for whatever reasons
But as an example we are all good persons

We have no reason to clash over faith
It is inbuilt to bow over any single death
Remember his grace till the last breath
He shall not discourage you and stay with

* Allah-o- Akbar… God is great

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…
