POEM / STAND UP FOR THE GIRLS

in #poetry7 years ago (edited)

T he fairer sex they are called,
S ubjugated and treated like lollipop,
T o far and near their emotions flung,
U sed and disused like garbage,
S inew despite the barrage,
A nd the victimisation and discrimination subjected to,
T hey take themselves up and brave the challenges,
T he girls are worth standing up for.

T o the society i scowl,
U nable to repress and suppress my fierce growl,
I asked grilling questions which bother of "How"
T o salvage the humanity left of the communal bow,
W e must stand up for them,
B ecause they are worth standing up for.

I nsouciance many to the happenings turned,
K ith and kin off the hook they are concerned,
I n afflence we live, so such staved,
T he future secured, the delusional belief of their mien.
W hat if your children they are,
T he nibbling question inundating the satient,
I n such abyss you leave them?
T o wallow in such hollow shallow of painful retrospect.
B ut they are worth standing for.

W idow's mite a long way it goes,
C onscientizing the primitive cultural custodians of their ways,
A skew it has been, a change we must wrought,
O n the bandwagon of change we must buy, that is what we sought
T he status quo changed and lives made devoid of turbulence,
T he girls deserve our solidarity,
I n peace and mild protest, the upswell of the popularity,
T Hey are worth standing for,
S tand for the girls...they could be your relatives.

Nice piece. Behind every successful man is a woman and behind every successful home is a wife. Help the girls get educated

That is the motive for this write-up. They must be educated. Give the girls the requisite education and let them break societal barriers. Help us spread the words

Hi @boboyed1000. This is a good write up. Guess you're a lady, lol

Im not a lady but it is an incurred onus which i took up for myself. Let us help them. Thank you for the encouragement.

Beautfiul poem with sensitivity! We have to educate the girls so that they can stand for themselves and educate others also to understand the sensitivity of this issue.

That is the motive. Sensitizing and conscientizing the whole world of the need to educate the girls. Girls are beautiful people and they must be protected
