Don't Kill Me-Voice Against Female Foeticide

13 Weeks Scan


Mom,don't kill me;
for the reason I am a girl.

Mom ,don't punish me;
I will not bother you much.
I won't disturb you;
cuddle quietly in your womb.

Mom,I will help you,
spare my life.
Mom ,how can you kill me?
 I am within you.

Mom ,who is bothering you?
me or those who are influencing you,
to kill me.

Mom,am I not your part?
I belong to you;
I am your blood.

Mom,please don't disconnect
umbilical cord between you and me;
before I could see the real world.

Mom,please give me a chance;
to come out and prove myself.

Mom,save me for yourself,
preserve womanhood;
to which you belong.

Mom,your mom gave your birth;
Why are you disowning me?

Mom,save me before its too late;
it will be you who will decide my fate.

Oh Pratibha, it is poignant, but I beg to differ with the last line. Most of the time, maybe all the time, the mother has no say in the matter of keeping a girl child. Others decide for her.

But mother needs to be stronger and must fight for her right to be mother.

agree with zephyr. A woman will never decide a thing like that. Mostly, she is forced to do it.

But a really heart wrenching poem.

Beautiful and very sensible. This crime has to be stopped.

Still I feel restless that women must take charge of her life and the life within otherwise world will be full of miseries for her.

It's not always in a woman's hand to decide her child's fate. Of course, I'm not talking about urban women.

By the way, nice poem. :)

Dr. Pratibha Singh November 18, 2010 at 9:07 PM  

But I still feel that helplessness of woman whether she lives in rural or urban areas will never solve the problem .

Dr. Pratibha Singh November 18, 2010 at 9:08 PM  

thanks joyajit for appreciation.
