The Omission. Poem by Gangadharan nair Pulingat..

Thousands of wars fought in world
Victors and defeated ones, stories heard
Songs of wars many people heard
Heroes worshiped as in mythologies
Wars between dynasties so many fought
The stories of sacrifices of common man neglected
Who fed the warriors and heroes of wars
Who tilled and sowed in earth for a harvest
And gave the food for both the victors and defeated ones
It was the common man whose name is deleted
Or omission that made in pages of books.
