PRODIGY
Writes
life story ecstatic unexpected,
Sealed
once the camber in my heart,
Heard
woman's life is weak, a creeper,
Depends
upon her parents, brothers,
Alert
to sentiments of life partner,
Seeks
mother children's sympathy help,
Desperate
for love from in-law parents,
Little
tribulations from elders in-law home,
Knows
pretty well a mature mind soon,
Automatic
senses decency a chain,
Customs
of the family frame culture,
Advised
sunlight never to touch the skin,
Confined
to home predators threaten,
Strange
calls knock at odd hours stealth,
Illicit
intention tries to trap the mind,
The human heart, by nature, love, and smiles,
A
woman learned sooner cautioned,
Watchful
Disaster may happen, clueless,
A
sudden, shockingly incident happen,
Shakes
of family life disbelieve time,
Those
loved, once praised, intimate,
Distanced
so soon forget character,
How
society families accept so easily,
Unfounded
blame and attack on actions,
Disbelieves
young woman suspected,
Blood
dear elders brothers harbor,
Distances
so quickly little consider,
My
life is a woman seasoned all,
loved
a guy, educated, meritorious,
Handsome,
far gentle with manner,
A
scholar, I fell in love, knew well,
Poor
fellow, but his father is a driver,
My
family was affluent, business good,
Rejected
outright the marriage,
After
my wedding to the poor guy,
Life
began with pleasure turned sour,
Pretty
askance n heart for assets, gold,
In-law
parents were demanding a lot,
Husband
helplessly evading knowingly,
Sacred
a love marriage found cracks,
I
complained mildly, temper rising,
A
cool aloofness I felt unbearable,
That
was after a few years of marriage,
I
preferred to be single with service,
Learned
that woman's life is not weak a fighter,
The
capacity she tolerates is phenomenal,
Decades
of teacher-ship as a professor,
Understood
how to lead a life alone,
Parents
had forgotten me, it surprises,
Unequal
life exists less discussed,
People
love women to sacrifice dreams,
Absorbs
inequality in every dimension,
Write
today my life never believed,
Life
in the dark corner seals a tunnel,
An
opened hole could see the other end,
There
is light so assuredly inviting too,
I
found an orphan child dropping out,
The
meritorious girl was a scholar,
Want
of money, she was leaving study,
Adopted
her legally financed till the end,
Today
is my retirement day from university,
Students
gave a touching farewell,
My
child is an administrator now,
A
respected officer with driver assistants,
Where
shall I go? I joked with her,
Enough
ma you suffered no more,
The
prodigy is here to hug you,
If
God exists, I see the embodiment.
