Seed

SEED

Every talent is a seed
And every seed has its need
Whatever the seed will be,
Depends on the farmer-holder of the seed

If the farmer discards the seed,
There will be no need satisfying the seed,s need
But If he decides to sow the seed,
Then he is burdened with responsibilities 

The seed needs a fertile land 
The farmer can,t waste its time on unfavorable environment
The seed needs a determined and willed hand 
It needs care and warm treatment 

The seed needs a favored rain
For much as the farmer,s diligence can irrigate,
That alone can,t determine the seed,s fate 
What comes from above nothing can drain 

The seed needs a graced sunshine 
For that  keeps the seed fit and balanced 
The farmer,s ability to reap that which is great and advanced,
Is dependent on factors which are divine 

Finally, the seed needs focus and consistency 
The farmer ought to earmark ample time for its success
How matured the seed will be should be his business
For without that, there may be plant without fruits- lifeless 


Every talent is a seed
And every seed has its need
Whatever the seed will be,
Depends on the farmer-holder of the seed
