A Man Of Rustic Woodland Air Poem by Ehsan Ehsan

A Man Of Rustic Woodland Air

Rating: 5.0


A MAN OF RUSTIC WOODLAND AIR
A man who is born, nourished and grown
In a rustic woodland air
What does he know and why should he know
Of the national or international politics
He is mainly concerned with his labor
And the production which he has to make
To feed himself, his family and save something
Against the rainy days or drought
He has nothing to do with right or left wings
The Republicans or the Democrats
He has to share the joys and sorrows
Of the community and people living around
The education and health of his children
And the employment that they need
He does not need to make commercial centers
And the big plazas and legal and illegal properties
He does not need to know of the stock exchanges
He is satisfied with his happy, peaceful domestic life
He enjoys the fresh and open air of the country
And thus by his peaceful living contributes a lot
To the progress, development and welfare
Of his motherland by his constant and honest labor!

The inner cry of the sensitive poet is clearly audible. People who are so honest and innocent, have since time immemorial been undergoing this kind of suppression, exploitation and miseries. This, however has to change. Thanks dear for the sharing.
