Perseverance
That farmer
Tending the crop
Like his very child
Giving manure
Irrigating
Protecting from insects
Spending sleepless nights
Saving them from the wild
And thus
When they are ripe
And ready to be reaped
There pour heavy rains
Destroying his hard labor of
Half a year time...
Though lost and pained
He does not lose heart
Rather -
Consoles his heart
Puts his trust in the Providence
Gets into the field
Preparing for the produce of
The next crop...
It's this perseverance
That deserves adoration!
