Woman Of Substance Poem by Rimni chakravarty

Woman Of Substance



Since my school days have heard we the girls must become the woman of substance
On 8th of March we heard it more in many a glittering presence
Of those women who rose to power
They had utilized many an hour
To devote themselves for some cause
They moved on without any pause
Decked in gold they made their presence bold
And spoke at length of women liberty
They demanded equality
But what about the term called fraternity?
I know not
Coz I found them very much concerned of their make up
I did never ever see them cheer up
That common lot
It is very east to clad in silk
It is also easy to procure foreign lipstick
And address the college girls
In the month of March
About women empowerment
But it is very hard or rather difficult for a women to bear the cold
When at dawn she comes out to work on the road
As a labor to earn the wage for her family
With no complains she does her work cheerfully.
