This is what I believe sometimes, from inside, more than half of me is Punjabi.
I don't have that accent though,
not that physical constitution,
hmmm, think I don't eat that much either, ha ha.
It's amazing how they keep their province green whole year.
Green is the color of prosperity, of peace,
and as Muslims believe, of Islam.
Sun, rain, rivers, soil, farms, trees, crops, flowers, cows, goats, camels, donkeys, chickens --- them and nature work together.
And I remembered this song of Naheed Akhtar while driving through the villages of Punjab.
