Pearl of the Womb

Pearl of the Womb

I am,
The prettiest pearl of your womb
Majestic fragrant flower to bloom,

Forming life within you, breathing in unison
Bonded umbilical, you are my foundation
Dear Ma, I feel safe
Nurtured, sheltered, associated
From my purest world
To yours, my arrival is awaited

And then, I am just your daughter
Can’t touch the grandeur of being a son
This fact, that mirror manifested
My being, same as yours
Then why you exasperated

Towards the gutter,
I am flushed, relegated
A cold blooded murder
By my root, my ruthless mother,
Committed red handed, yet the veil of sophisticated
Shakti herself, with the prowess of creating generations, yet subjugated

Could the chords of womb be ever so corrupted?

Women's day

I choose this day of “Happy Women’s day” especially to express my gratitude and love for the “MEN” as I believe this beautiful collaboration of equals i.e masculine and feminine can make this world a better place.

Although, I do fee l that at times the woman or girl child needs that extra support to be celebrated and accepted as equals. In the Indian context, for that to happen, we still need to elevate our consciousness. And yes, there is more sensation than sensitization in our society with regard to the true spirit of feminism. I do not find it right that women are imitating men to prove equal to them. It’s not the correct approach to emulate their dress or life style. That doesn’t prove anything other than allowing and acknowledgi

खून काश के खून भी पानी जैसा होता  न जमता , न जलता , न काला पड़ जाता  काश के खून भी पानी जैसा होता  उन्माद सा बहता , उमड़ता  बिना भेद भाव के , बिना रंग राग के  बस अपने आगोश में ले लेता  फिर एक रंग हो कर लहरों सा झूमता  काश के खून भी पानी जैसा होता काश... - मीनाक्षी
