Sitting down gently
Looking very tired
With very heavy load
Heavy and atimes light

She has no option
She bears it all alone
Work done by two
Now turned hers alone
Who will now help her?
Nobody, not even the doer

The dread journey of the baby
On delivery almost saw her dead
Huu! Haa! Haa! so the cry goes
Inevitable pain in labourroom is liken to hell

Does her work stop after this?
Who will nurse the born baby?
Who will wean him day and night?
The cries at midnight
When everybody dosed off
She opens her eyes wide
Dening herself the sweet nightsleep
What matters to her is the wellbeing of her baby

Six month of weaning
A year plus of hardwork
Can she stop when the child is old?
She will care for him wholeheartedly
Woman! Woman! Woman!
A womanhood.
