Find Yourself There Poem by Gajanan Mishra

Find yourself there,
Discover within,
And get a woman.

A letter - a woman,
Costly gem,
Inherent worth
And with an inclination
To serve free,
As said poet Shankar Mishra.
And he is right,
I do admit.

A woman-
A self-sacrificing candle,
And she knows well
How goats and lions
Can be peacefully handled.
She has an inevitable ability
To sail the ship of life
With her own wheel.

True, the woman has
Cane's flexibility,
Rock's firmness,
Visionary prowess
And everything for
All out development
And progress.

And she lives for others,
She is the mother,
She is the daughter,
She is the sister.
She is the last one
To see and tolerate
When anyone suffers.

A woman- the true leader,
I find endless bliss
All around her.


* Written after reading the poem " The attributes of a true leader" by poet Shankar Mishra. I am grateful to the dear poet.
