Poor Farmer's Hope
He wakes up at dawn.
Looks at sun.
Takes his plough n goes to his farm.Just ,when he thinks that everything is squared away.
He notices that his land looks like dry clay.
He gets fear.
Then,rolls his eye tear
With no rain,
he encounters lots of pain.
After a long wait,rain falls .That feeling for him is liberating
and exhilarating.
He puts lots of efforts in developing his crop.
That's when cyclone sets to shower nonstop.
Leading to a flood.
Uprooting the crop ,leaving behind mud.
This puts a damper on his hope
He wonders where to elope .
With little funds ,again ,plants a sapling in the same land
with his hand.
He becomes a beginner.
Hoping to become a winner.
