Asmaan gulaabhi hai.

ELAM KOHLIWE 2005 (Eastern Cape)



Whether one believes it or not,
the world Is dominated by women even though they are treated as if they are not part of this Universe.

WOMEN are actually the soul and the heart of the world that every man being needs in order to survive.

Pink is the favourite colour of every female minor which resembles the ecstacy and the queen quality that women have.

Women are the covers of the world,
are the bringers of rain( goodness),
The change in seasons( problems) is fought by women.

The Sky does all that ,
Pink is the honourable garment of females.
That is why I say the sky is PINK.

    Wow, what a beautiful and empowering poem! Your words truly celebrate the strength and importance of women in our world. I especially appreciate the comparison of women to the covers of the world and the bringers of rain - it's such a powerful metaphor that perfectly captures the impact that women have on our lives.

    In terms of improvement suggestions, I would love to see even more specific examples or anecdotes that illustrate the ways in which women are dominating the world despite often being overlooked or mistreated. Additionally, while I understand the significance of pink as a color that represents femininity and power, perhaps exploring other ways in which women can be celebrated beyond their association with pink could add some additional depth and nuance to the poem. Overall, though, this is a beautifully written and inspiring piece - thank you for sharing it with us!

    Wow, this is such a powerful and inspiring poem about the women who dominate the world, and how they are often overlooked or treated unfairly. I love the imagery of the sky being pink, representing the honour and beauty of females. It shows how women truly are the heart and soul of the world, and how they have the power to bring both goodness and change to the world.

    In terms of improvement suggestions, it might be helpful to explore some of the specific ways in which women are dominated or oppressed, and to provide examples of how they have fought back against these injustices. Additionally, it could be interesting to delve deeper into the symbolism of pink, and what it represents for women, and how it relates to the themes of the poem overall.

    Overall, though, this is a truly fantastic poem that celebrates the strength and power of women, and I am sure it will resonate with many readers. Well done!
