SHE!!


someone with the potenial to smile through all the pain
someone with the strength to fall and fight again...
someone who wont give up on life's narrow lane..
someone with the power to make a boon from every bane...

a mother, a teacher, a lover, a friend...
someone u will find at every bend...
a helping hand u wont need twice to ask...
someone who wont rest till she finishes every task...

a dutiful daughter, a doting wife...
someone who'll stand by u till the end of life...
someone soo strong yet seems so meek
someone who'll surprise u dare u consider her weak...

someone who hurts , someone who cries...
someone who can speak volumes through her eyes...
an innocent heart which sometimes refuses to mend...
but springs up everytime its loved one to defend...

someone u can confide in when life isnt fair...
someone who for u will always be there...
a friend who will wait all day and talk...
and never leave u alone on life's lonely sidewalk...

im proud to be that someone in every way...
and would choose to be 'her' any given day...
the will, the might, the strength to be...
noone can challenge the power of 'she'...

YES, IM PROUD TO BE A WOMAN! :)

PROMPT: taken from '3wordwednesday' the words being 'twice', 'rest' and 'sidewalk' to gear up for the proud ocassion of 'international womans day' on 8th march :)

I just remembered this one of my fav song! :)

She
May be the face I can't forget
A trace of pleasure or regret
May be my treasure or the price I have to pay
She may be the song that summer sings
May be the chill that autumn brings
May be a hundred tearful things
Within the measure of the day.

She
May be the beauty or the beast
May be the famine or the feast
May turn each day into heaven or a hell
She may be the mirror of my dreams
A smile reflected in a stream
She may not be what she may seem
Inside a shell

She who always seems so happy in a crowd
Whose eyes can be so private and so proud
No one's allowed to see them when they cry
She may be the love that can and hope to last
May come to me from shadows of the past
That I remember till the day I die

She
May be the reason I survive
The why and where for I'm alive
The one I'll care for through the rough and rainy years
Me I'll take her laughter and her tears
And make them all my souvenirs
For where she goes I got to be
The meaning of my life is

She, she, she

Jane Doe said...

That was fantabulous! I am woman, hear me roar! Great job!

Totally empowering and strong. I am woman, hear me roar...loved this!

//a dutiful daughter, a doting wife...
someone who'll stand by u till the end of life...//

going forward in life, this is all that matters. In any perspective, life is not complete without a daugther and a wife, who will become part of our life.

Thx for coming Priya :) You write very well.

rebecca said...

You've managed to capture the true essence of woman...so very well done. And, like you, I am proud to be called "She."

WritingsForLife said...

You should read Phenomenal Woman by Maya Angelou. it is to the same lines.
Absolutely awesome poem! :-)

Tumblewords: said...

She is a good thing to be! Nicely done!

Lukkydivs said...

oh pri, such a fabulous thing to read for woman's day :) just covered every little thing about being a woman :) cheers!!

ceedy said...

here are my 2 cents

someone with intriguing words
someone who finds peace in others
a crazy friend of QWERTY
someone who promises to blog till doomsday......

just a question - are you emulating Jodhaa ....and emopowering some significant Akbar!!!!

Princess said...

HAPPY WOMEN'S DAY

-Aiz.

radiohead said...

Someone who keeps quite when She talks ..

YEAh!! I am proud to be a GUY !!

:P

seriously ..

someone who is always read to bug
someone who never minds a hug
someone who is comfy as rug
someone who hold her like a Tug

someone who vows the same way as she
someone who feels himself, the way it is He

Interestingly, there is no escape for the two someones.

;)

Sam said...
