FARMER SUICIDES

Everyday I hear farmers commiting suicide

Each time I hear, I wonder why ?

Is it the drought?

Is it the unpaid loans?

Is it the scruples moneylenders?

Is it the hunger?

Is the esteem?

Is it the pride?  I wonder...

I am sure there is a solution for all...

Is it the loans that the government waives of at each election

And other times they are left to fend for themselves.

Some places I see lots of grains,lying,unutilised,rotting

Can’t they be distributed ,I wonder.

They say they don’t have cold storages,

As if cold storages have to be brought form Mars.

And every time government forms committee after committee

And report after reports

But still farmers go  on a suicide spree.

Sometimes the government prods itself saying ,

This year the no. of deaths are less than the last year

But isn’t a single death shameful.

Should I helplessly watch ,I wonder

Shall I tell them  STOP,DON’T,PLEASE

There is a solution for everything.
Can I give them an ounce of hope,I wonder?
Will they listen to my words,I wonder?
Will they understand and respond to my words,I wonder?

Can I bring back some happiness and smiles,I wonder...?

Can I empower them to a respectable and healthy life,I wonder...?
