Peasants – Not  a  satire 
but  a  good 
label                      
At  home
peasants  eat porridge in the morn,
 With till
on  their 
neck, and sickle in the hand
 Go  to 
the  fields, the  poor lady or daughter 
 Brings curd
rice with pickle for the lunch.
 The  peasants 
are not  peanuts. 
Sweat on their  forehead 
 brings tillage     
 A name of 
 vintage .This  class, this 
 Inevitable  backbone ,this heartbeat
 Is  the
pride  of 
nation. They  sow  the seeds,
 They own the country, reap the  harvest,
Look up to the  Heavens, monsoon and rain 
Should not fail  the crops.
 Then, Reap 
the bonanza,they own the country.
