The Patriot [ Attempt of a sonnet]




In the pursuit of making both the ends meet
Middle class embrace worries in the forms of  dues
"Our lives we sacrifice—our wishes soon deplete
Patriotism rests in news and views"

Love, pain, agony are emotions same
At the behest of hunger, Poor are blinded
Illegal acts,  protests under anyone’s name
Hunger taught them not to get offended

Bon jour mademoiselle, the Rich love to talk!
"Ooh la la! Our emotions are subtly woven
We have organized 'Feed the Hungry' walks
Always we have been socially,  droven"

Each section, unaware of the other
Oh yes! ‘course we are sisters and brothers

I have attempted a sonnet. A sonnet is a form of poetry. The poem consists of 14 lines and each line has ten syllables.
The picture is taken from Google.

Explanation: Each stanza refers to one section of the society. First : Middle Class, Second : Poor and the Third: Rich. Trying to bring out the patriot in each!
