Lots To Catch

Come April
There's lots to catch
Spring is fading out
Flowers are wilting
No new flowers on their way
But before sunrise
Step into a field
Stretches of golden fields
Will greet you dancing in the breeze
Wheat stands tall
All ready to be harvested
Farmers get busy
Procuring and harvesting
They  store some
Sell the rest
In open markets
We take it
We bake it sometimes
The other we make
Something else
Farmers are thrilled
There's excitement in the air
Their long drawn out labour
Will soon bring result
They had slogged in the fields
Unmindful of weather conditions
To see their golden fields
Now there's music and dancing
Their families are  rejoycing
There are feasts held
And prayers too
So there's no rain for a while
There's such joy all around
All debts will be cleared
They'll lead a happy and comfortable life.

I can see a happy environment. This poem is not just based on the beauty of seasons but also on the role of beauty and happiness in life. A beautiful poem, I say. Have a nice day and may you write more such beautiful poems.

This is beautiful, I can see seasons pass by, and how that reflects in the lives of farmers, their families, and in nature. Welcome to PoetrySoup :)
