Best Peasant Poems

A  modern day peasant, I am
Cause the $money$ all goes to the man
Pay a few bills
Buy a few frills
And don't forget old Uncle Sam...

He lives there, where people love
Land as mother, worship agriculture

People of his nation, after independence
brought green, white, yellow, blue revolutions
to meet with the crisis of food
to wipe out hunger
to up root poverty.

He tills his mother earth
carries plough on his shoulder
sheds his sweats
turns himself into soil.

After...

If I were a peasant girl,
   ...would you over look it?

If I were a queen with elegance,
 ..would you love me more?

Step forward step forward you peasant you.
Time to chop off your head and lay you to bed, six feet under is where you will be 
all because you dropped my Danish on me!...

In his weary hour
The legumes blossom on time;
Out of jocundity in honour
Of the beautiful turf
The drowsy peasant peak.

His weird blistered palm blimey,
 His nasty regalia wretched,
 He produces plenty and eats small
 He produces good and eats bad
 To the nobles he worked, 

The dark...

His belly full of absinthe
His nervous system writhed
as he looked up to the heavens
cachinnation in his eyes
The juice from plums of damson
trickled down as purple blood
as he fell, the kulak jester
face first flat into the mud
Aromatic orange berries 
filled the night right up with spice
whilst...

Come! said the peasant-boy
To my golden temple
With spires of ice
Where glories entice
Even the noblest of men!

Come! said the peasant-boy
To my marble halls
With pillars of heights
And glittering lights
Kings and their courts would adore!

Come! said the peasant-boy
To the berth of dreams
Where musik ascends
To heavenly ends
A joyous Amen...

Better a Peasant in Heaven
Than, a Resident of Hell
Lest there be any Question
When the Lord tolls your Bell....

to irrigate his crops in the desert 
but he and family drank all of it
before use...

Urban peasant is poor.
He rears only a cat, a dog,
in bedrooms and lounge,
the things he cannot eat!...

I am a Cretin of just a Peasant Sight
Worthless to the Lovers who Kiss under the Moon each Night
The Sights and Sounds of my voice are plainly Dull
So please do not breathe in this dying Martin's last Breath
Suicidal?NO OH NO!! Just a little bit tired...

Winter snow had fallen
and the land now sparkled white
but still the little peasant girl
trudged homeward through the night
her clothes were thin and ragged
and her face was rosy red
she had served her Lord and master
now she journeyed home to bed
she did not see the danger
on the...

A parent wanting his son to survive,
For this begins to humanly strive
To snatch him back, have his Jim revive
The scene before twelve a buzzing beehive,
Even as more alerted feet arrive,
Delaying Journalists to the scene soon drive

A hunger-induced fall and tragic swoon
No unpaid medic ever arrives...

Many years ago,
Before yours or my time,
When the only way to
Travel to and fro
Was not with automobiles,
Or cars or trains,
Or even planes. 
But with a horse or a donkey.
This happened in the villages 
In Greece, donkeys were a
Cheap mode of transport,
But stubbornly would sit
On their...
