Things of Allure Can Lure

The gloss of Great Things of allure A young heart continues to lure But poor efforts bar through failure, Hardworking farmers no manure, Not a lot of The Tried secure; From them distanced fertilizer Otherwise The Stabilizer… The grandeur of Things of Allure Makes one unpleasant risks incur, Cries of “Oh! my God!” reoccur, One is some leg bitten by a cur One: a freezing body, no fur! Yes: pearl, ruby, emerald, gold: All that we gaze at Hands unfold.
