\"the music of duty\", What a wonderful, descriptive phrase! You have a way with words that I envy, my friend.

Wow! I didn\'t think the subject matter could be written in such a beautiful, poetic way. Your poem proves me wrong! Nice work!

My grandfather had a few cows many years ago, but not for dairy. Being raised on a large farm (mostly tobacco, fruits and vegetables) I felt the warm of this scene. I have an understanding of sun up to sundown sweat, the sweet cool of late evening meaning shower, supper, and satisfied rest.

Things we attribute as beautiful or as painful to watch, nature is indifferent as it is simply their nature.
Hugs.

What you have poetically so well expressed, is indeed very relevant in our our Enlightened Age! Despite the advances of science with its String Theory & the Higgs Boson, we have not been able to fathom the full beauty & mysterious creation of the Lord! During the 3rd century BC it was the Greek philosopher Pythagoras who had said that the revolving planets create music in the depth of space! Thanks for sharing Fay, -Raj, New Delhi

Tin and copper mines can go down pretty deep. We definitely need some recompense for laborers after they are spent.

Beautiful poem, Fay, summed up nicely in the last two lines. I submit that nothing much has changed, just that the servitude has become much more subtle. Kudos on another fine one!
