the villagers


The villagers
Living in remote areas
Earning sun up to sun down
Hard work low returns

The settlers dreams of many
Clearing land fortunes in hand
Dreaming about the good life
The green hills and surrounding ground

The eyes of materialistic wants
The minds dream all about
Clearing up the empty virgin land
Believing there will be good living

Decades of surrending
Fighting the forces of nature
Hardwork low returns
The dreams seemingly disappear

Now matured and spent force
The land once they knew
Of dreams and good life
It seems the middle men make it
