NECKLACE

 

NECKLACE

Gracefully, the Lord builds wonder,
Female charm unearthly, ponder,
Necklace garlands, idol decorated,
Fragrant flower divine permeated,
Symbol of womanhood, flower stays,
Gift of the Lord to human dismay,
unparalleled tenderness existence,
The glue to unite lives, love intense,
Soft touch heals wound alarm,
Why does society ignore, yet harm,
Fabrics imprinted manicured life,
Family circulate mother in strife,
Another world, her home confined,
The world at large is yet undefined,
This was practice generation back,
Today, emancipation no longer lacks
Frontier guard fighter mariner fit,
Educated teacher scientists delight,
Farm sector village industry spine,
National strength, a woman defines,
Shy at veil child marriages death,
Childbirth, a fatal time of lack of breath,
Blind prejudices, women sufferers,
Generation realized girls are superior,
Equality, liberty, education, or skill,
Agonies of women end lives uphill,
Three cheers for my country's descent,
A female tribal leader is the president
Land pays respect to womanhood,
For centuries, molested, withstood,
Dawn, come, necklace wear,
Bangles vermilion Hindu wife dear,
Women are the necklace for the land,
The spine of the nation is a magic wand,
Mother Earth, nature, ocean, river,
Season bridal blossoms life secure,
Sings Lord's glory gift to humans,
Feminine aspects of women's charms,
Hindus worship as the Goddess bows,
Fertile land, corn bountiful shows.
She is a creeper necklace on the tree,
Rises to the top, fragrant flower, see,
Her hands around your neck, man,
The Lord waits for garlands, a fan!
