The morning rise too early
as quick the reservoir goes steep,
the task to fill so many belly
is the steroid his blood keep,
else, cry of his offspring will cuz calamity
and vanquish his inner lake of tranquillity

in circles, he labours again
just daily bread is his only gain
in the dirt, mashy and muddy water
carrying all sort of tantalising matter.

whether the day is rough and cruel,
exploding thunder, rain and cold
or the heat, like that of an oil well,
still, hands strong on the task he holds,
ever proving worthy, to be called again
ever looking for an extra coin to gain.

in all, he is just dust and clay
ever grateful to nature every day
for vitality if not the brilliant brain
content he is not but has his to gain
