A woman! !
Embodiment of beauty!
Epitome of love!
Creativity at its height!
Graceful like a swan,
Dignity in her stride,
Born to be loved,
Beauty well defined...
Taken from the rib of Adam -they say;
Enticed him to eat THE FRUIT -they say;
Responsible for opening the Pandora's Box -they say;
To let out troubles unlimited -they say.
But can't imagine a world without her-
The generator of generations,
Her womb to germinate the seeds,
Her mercy infinite! !
Her eyes a mystery of veiled secrets
To drown in its depth
The choice of a few lucky ones
Her lips sensual; though stubborn at times
Various roles she justifies.
Weak in gender maybe...
But strong in mind...definitely...
Meek like a deer when loved;
Fierce like a lion when wounded.
Like a mother hen she weaves a mantle around her family;
Protective and possessive in nature,
When hurt she suffers alone-
When happy she rejoices with all
Not a show piece to be adorned;
Has proved her mettle;
Space created in all sectors-
Evidence of equality shown
This gift a boon to mankind;
To be loved and treasured! ! !

Beautiful. yes if only all could cherish a woman as she is created by God and to love her as the mother of generations and the embodiment of mercy this world would have been a better place. But i think of our dirty dowry system which kills relationships and a girl is considered as a burden. soooo pathetic. thank you for your poem God bless
