It's sad when we know they is more then enough food to feed the entire world. The cruel irony is she is trying to grow the thing she needs, and starving at the same time. Excellent poem, thanks for sharing.

This is indeed a terrible situation. Amid the stories of farm distress pushing hundreds of farmers to commit suicide leaving their hapless family members to fend for themselves with no young male members to help. This entire portrayal is heart-wrenching. Nobody seems to have any concern for their pitiable condition. Where is the government which has been elected by 'We the people....'. and has taken the oath to serve the people equitably. Thanks, Geeta ji.

It is really a heart touching write.. There are many cases of farmer's suicide in India.Though there are many schemes to uplift the conditions of farmers, the true benefit does not reach the needy.It is really a tragic situation.The one who grows food do not get to eat.
