The Modern Woman

In a society of devils,
She no longer hides herself under the veil
She has made her own identity ...
Overthrowing all the evils.
Jealousy, selfishness and hatred
No longer appeals her heart...
Confident & defiant she steps forward.
With her benign nature
With her divine smile
She goes on performing the roles of
A daughter, mother and a wife.

She symbolizes love & affection
She's the icon of sacrifice
Inspite of her pains & woes...
With hopes she continues her strife.

She's a blessing not a burden
She needs no pity but encouragement !
She deserves to be honored...
She deserves to be respected...
She's not an object to be detested !
