hasmukh amathalal - Be Like River

River is like holy mother
Our life line and compared with no other
Its water flow with no noise
Render calmness with full of promises

People are advised to be like river
But they have not seen her before
She has different nature too
Very dangerous attitude to be very much true

When furious takes heavy toll
Destroy everything and uproot all
Touch both the banks and spell disaster
As if she has everything in form of power

It is like curbing someone's desire
Then you may have to get ready or prepare
For any result when she has her time
You can't undermine her ability anytime

Her desire is met sometimes
Some rivers diehard to reach sea anytime
But alas! The way is lost in between
Her desire to meet ocean is never seen

Normally she is cal and quiet
Not crushing us always as that of fate
She is always kind and affectionate
Lovely banks and so many things to relate

Trees and branches welcome with respect
Her action is commendable with an act
Both the sides bear high green grass
The cattle graze and many birds fly over to pass

So create nature like river
Have temperature like fever
Rise in a second and subside quickly
Scold by one hand and love so easily
