once
in another time
another place
among riches
wealth she stayed
through her
opulence
her life
she displayed
than one day
she renounced
it all
at the feet
of lord Mahavira
her dues
to the world
she paid
barefeet
spreading
the message
of hope and peace
healing
while she prayed
giving
the homeless
light and shade
walking on
a path of thorns
unafraid

When a Woman Renounces Life she becomes One With God...
