Thy Heart, Thy Fertile Land

"As you sow, so shall you reap”,
is what we were always told
It was grilled inside till it took hold
But nobody thought one could be so bold
To really believe, what they called, fables of old
Because wasn’t that something cheap that the dimwitted sold?

“As you sow, so shall you reap”,
was not meant as a lesson to transform the internal
How outrageous to think beyond the external!
How whimsical to think there is an eternal!
Or to deny that this was something meant to divide the fraternal!
Or to deem that things could be solved by something nocturnal!

“As you sow, so shall you reap”,
wasn’t intended to go so deep
It seems unwarranted to take such a big leap
Wouldn’t it be better to put the conscience to sleep?
But it wouldn’t do, the heart did let the lesson seep
Oh how much that has made the eyes weep!

“As you sow, so shall you reap”,
was a promise made to the Unseen
And the test is to see who is so keen
On keeping the promise and to really mean
It for Him, and nothing else, no matter what it may seem
Until you and I have been seen
