Such Days

It is the world
And its owners and masters 
They have reserved
Such days of the year
As;
Labour day,
Woman's day,
Mother's day, 
Fathers day, 
Lover day, Valentine's day
And Just the few 
And such other days
For us people
The rest of the days
Of the year are for the owners
To enjoy their life
On our works
On our blood
On our struggle
It is the world
And its owners 
And masters decide
All matters.
