Tiny as a pulse
Similar as a boy,
Floating in the womb,
Symbol of LAXMI,
Sacred yet Scared!
Soft as a petal,
Innocent as cotton,
Tinkling by laughter,
Symbol of SARASWATI,
Education herself, yet illiterate!
Blooming as a flower,
Flourishing sweet fruits,
Apple of eyes,
Symbol of GANGA,
Precious yet donated!
Welcomed with crackers,
Accepts all changes,
Dreaming of happiness,
Symbol of PARVATI,
Loveable yet abused!
Worshiped in Temples,
Sought of in Navratri,
Decorated in flowers,
No body cares,
As they become DRIED PETALS!
