Unbound Unlimited-A Free Spirit

The native language
set limits for her
within days of her birth.

A free spirit-
she refused to be tied down
to the societal norms and legacies.

A 'precious thing, a treasure'
she was, in a different language.
'A beautiful face', called her
another foreign tongue.

Undeterred by the obstacles
thrown her way by her own people
she carved a fresh path for herself
and her daughter.

Sisterhood beyond borders
of language, faiths and ideologies
is the bond she cherishes
with her soul sisters.

The world may call her Seema
but she knows her worth
she chooses her own limits,
draws her own boundaries.
