Construction Woman

Loads on the head
Dream in the eyes
Shaping the future
Building the Generations
Barefooted.

Implementing the scheme
Empty stomach.

Steely and passionate
Weak but committed
strident but dedicated
the mainstay of workforce
the constructing the plant
barefooted.

Maintaining the schedule
Empty Stomach.

Romancing with the hardship
Flirting with the difficulties
The night in the dreams stare
For tomorrow's bread and butter
They wake up deserted
For the work and force
Which are required.
The hunger and thirst
That are to be satiated.

To Each one of you, I complement
For the perseverance you suplement.

(Chennai - Construction site at TNEB, North Chennai-120 on 29/9/200. I found the female construction worker much more hard working than the male workers. )
