RIVER - WOMAN
RIVER - WOMAN
Sitting on the bank I see the flowing river
Wind making gentle ripples on water
River receives everything...
The filth of the cities
And human beings
But water purifies itself
Of all impurities
Of all impurities
As a woman does
The ego, the atrocities of men
River flowing like a woman
Through hills and planes
Maneuvering mountains
Hiding in crevices
Ebbing under pebbles and stones
Brazing hurdles
Then oozing out again
Swaying voluptuous like a woman
After facing the boons and banes of life
Rising high in the journey of life
A woman
A river
Ganga - Yamuna - Saraswati
All named after a woman
A nurturer
Crystal clear gliding grace
Roaring at times and uprooting
To make the new beginnings
Nourishing... nurturing
A river
A woman
