SENRYU - WOMAN

back and forth
she swings hooked
to the morals
*

futuristic
she lulls to cradle
her heart
*
vacation
she relaxes in meeting
family's demands
*
marathon
her race to cross
the line of poverty
*
education
reading between the lines
she competes high
*
coffee table
she swirls the froth
to turn the table
*
arena
keeping to the rules
she plays her ace
*
space
the orbiting Mangalyaan carried
women power
