You know her,
The solitary sower
She buried a thousand
Grains away in deep sand
Tarries a whole year
And hopes to find a bountier harvest there!
She is faith.
You know him
From his gun or his dog team,
The highland hunter
Treading so far a border
And laying traps for eloping antelopes
Not a thought if the creatures ne'er elopes.
He too is Faith!
You know the office Jack
For today he's done and back
Eats himself empty as hollow
Make a list and sets an alarm for morrow
Tosses his body to bed
And dies till the day ahead.
Even He is Faith!
And the tax collector
He's play'd same scenes before
Making my dear chief
Run like a chased thief,
Today he's back again
Promising to put them to same pain,
Not a care if the red heads are dressed for war:
This is Faith taken too far.
Faith is acting on what one believes in. It is the strongest spiritual force which is capable of propelling man to the highest level of achievement no matter the obstacles on the way. A lovely poem written with insight. I like the articulation of the poem as it captured the essence of the piece and the poet's convictions. Thanks for sharing. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON.
