Branches reaching out for us
Extended arms in embrace
Birds nesting everywhere
She stands tall with grace
She is the tree with deep roots
Feeding us all with her fruits
Forgetting herself in the bargain
Her pleasures forfeited for pain within
She is a woman, she is life
Her blossoms, create seed
Life, in orchard and its creed
Let her leaves shine, let her branches soar
Let her not sacrifice anymore …
this is beautiful..thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. A beautiful tribute..you did it with justice.
A very nice poem This is more than an extended metaphor, and much better than most. I believe this would be considered a 'pathetic fallacy, ' or personification. I am not using this in any pejorative sense, but as descriptive of the kind of figure of speech you are using. Much more effective than say that horrid example 'Trees' by Joyce Kilmer.
It's a beautiful poem. ' Forgetting herself in the bargain....' -yes, it is so with most women
Let her not sacrifice anymore …...very touching and preaching line....I think, second time I comment....doesn't matter....excellent poem once again...that last line bears a very good metaphor....congrats
what a tribute to womanhood in all its glory....hats off to you Nikunj... the ending 'let her not sacrifice anymore' stands out.
Nikunj, this is soooo beautiful and vivid in its capturing the mood of feminity in its wholesome splendour... You have very soft thoughts for the female community and may you be blessed - arya
Nikunji, I must admit you made me wish all men could read this and start valuing us. You really do value a woman, which is quite attractive.
I can relate to this poem. Your message is lovely and our higher power knew we had the strength to handle it all that's why He/She put us in that position. Liked the smoothness of your poem, just like the softness of a woman, nice form.
