What Ease
You want easy ways to make money
Are you trying to or trying not to be funny?
For there's no significance without labour and pain
All of which even though tarried in, is not in vain
You may see the ease and effortlessness of heirs
For the labour of their fathers is duly theirs
Wish not to be such a son but to be as his father
That your generations may have life in good lather
We are living in perilous days
Marketing to you all the easy ways
That you may loathe endurance and sacrifice
And soften your heart to the convenience of a vice
Such temptations are common to men
They are now as they were then
Let God work in you all good to completeness
That plenty may not find in you any weakness
K. Muitherero.
