Urbanisation. Poem by Nabakishore Dash

People left the villages;
came to the town.
Got enough money and
facilities to settle down.
Village Life was ruined;
agriculture was neglected.
Gradual migration became
mass exodus; increased
greenhouse effect.
Farming in villages suffered
due to lack of man power.
Supply of food grains decreased;
hunger needs are in danger.
How long can people live
in the towns with increasing inflation?
To fulfill our tummies, can we
eat the currency notes we earn.
Migrants, please return from the towns
and mind your crop land.
Feed yourself and supply
food to others; an indispensable demand.
