Cultivation

Farmers cultivate land for food grains,
Businessmen and Money lenders cultivate 
invested money for gain, 
Air cultivates Ice bergs
in the  sea of cloud for rain.

Philosophers cultivate thoughts
to see truth ahead, 
Scientists' experiments cultivate
for results to be set for benefit.

Writers and Poets cultivate inner sense
for something to express,
Judges cultivate Law in courts
to feed reasonable justice.

By the way or on the way 
all cultivate something for only needs
In this World, 
Cultivation always certainly feeds.

helping you get rid of the I Don't Know ;) These would be Couplet form..BUT you have not laid it out that way. Line 1 ends with grains, line 2 should end with gain..that's your first COUPLET, line 3 ends with rain [so you need an extra line for line 4..with the same rhyme ain,ane,ein, or aign..all work! Line 5 should end ahead, and line 6 should end in benifit [this loose rhyme is called half-rhyme or slip rhyme] line 7 end in express, line 8 in justice..line 9 in needs line 10 in feeds and then you would have a proper COUPLET form!
