Sita…. the love!!

Blinding beauty

Smiling damsel

Just another woman….

Is what Ravan thought of Sita!!

So do most men deem about women

Her austere simplicity

Just like any other woman

She dreaded her foe

But never let her eyes show

Daring words to the trembling mind

she voiced as fear crept like the wind

Every passing day was a combat

just not easy without a doubt

She flaunted devotion and compassion

with humility yet unrelenting to slavery

Ravan felt the force in her eyes

Not in resentment, torment or enmity

But in her resilience far beyond destiny

He reveres the blaze in her

Unnerving decision made

Awaiting the influx of

the divine aura to resuscitate

or so he thought…

Rama fought with a horde…but

Sita fought solo, the ghostly rival

With benevolence as armor

To every fiend every time

Made a buddy out of every beast

So does every woman

Simply troopers … Lovely lassies!!!!
