CRY FROM THE WOMB- Women's Day Special

CRY FROM THE WOMB-

''Like a tiny seed sown in a fertile soil,
As I sprout my limbs in my mother's womb..
Still waiting to come out and shout!
I can hear the whispers and see the scorns!

Minds strategizing to kill me.!
Innovative ways to get rid of me! !

My heart trembles as my mother weeps,
For the USG detects me to be a girl!
A mortal sin in the whole world?
Will I live to breath the fresh air?
To play in sun and dance in rain?
Will I survive the wintry night?
Will I live to see the light?
For I am a girl,  not supposed to fight! !
And this is not just my story but many girls' plight!
Wonder how the story will unfurl?
For I was to be born a girl! ''

On this Women's day, I just hope and pray that this becomes the last of such stories!
HappyWomens'Day..
