Embrace Equity
In the worldly desert,
She is the fertile oasis,
A propounder of life,
Protector and fortified glacis;
Yet she is subjected to suffering,
Subdued with maleficent force,
Exploited, deprived and deplored,
Tagged the underserved coarse.
Let's work hand in hand
To bring a positive vibe;
Embolden, galvanize and cheer,
The untrodden women tribe.
We got to be just with them
Provide equal opportune,
Too much of patriarchy;
Now be the companion boon.
We choose to rise together,
We held hand with integrity;
Be a part of the movement,
Commit and embrace the equity (Theme of IWD 2023).

Poem composed to celebrate IWD_2023 on the request of Archana E.
