Pure Rice Poem by Kumarmani Mahakul

Pure Rice

Rating: 5.0


Rice, rice, rice, cook, cook, cook,
While hunger comes it does hook.
A person eats daily, poor or rich,
Rice you are food satisfy to each.

Without you we can't live Oh! Rice,
For working hard some eat you thrice.
Human, insects or birds all need you,
The whole day they get strength new.

For filling belly every day all do think,
Farmers every year in cultivation sink.
In search of you people go for place,
They run and compete to win the race.

Some do earn money only for belly,
They cook in kitchen to serve daily.
The state of mind depends on nature,
By command of time rice you nurture.

Purity is purpose eating with flavor,
While we offer God you do favour.
Oh! Rice, without you we don't sustain,
By grace of God you serve we contain.
