Diligence

Like the rain that pours in the arid backlands, making blossom the most shriveled of branches I will work my days! I will cultivate friendships And, with all willpower, I will perpetuate peace! I will defend nature! I will delight my eyes with such beauty. And, by greater force, I will compose from the primest melody Charms of sympathy. I will profuse embraces, I will cheer up souls. I will walk together. And even when I’m out of things to say, I will bid cheers to silence! And who knows, maybe one day, Diligent, And seeing life as celebration, I will be rain pouring in aridness!
