Good Earth Poem

Wang Lung was a farmer
Hardworking and strong
He didn’t waste but a single morsel of his farm

O-Lan he bought
She helped a lot
She bore him children
And sons

But his children starved
So he went to the south
Mobs broke down the doors
Of the rich mans house
And money they got

They went back to their land
Their beloved land
And their wealth returned

Later he bought Lotus
For his lust
And he bought The House Of Hwang
For his greed

Before his death
He warned his sons not to sell his land
But his sons were ignorant
And so went his land
