Young inks bleed
All digging to plant seeds
Seeds for a great tree
Which will shelter their future
II
Some will dig shallow holes
Because like the parable of the farmer
Weeds grow with plants
So winds or birds will destroy some plants
III
Those prepared like Job in the Bible
Will dig and grow well
Water well
And have strong shoots
IV
Somewhere in the future
Many things can happen
Strong winds can push some down
Woodcutters will cut some down
Pests can destroy some
But the strong and fortunate will stand
Always nice watching from a distance
