“Harvesting”

 
“Harvesting”
 
cji
11/29/13
 
Going into the fields planted
having cultivated all summer
weeding and watering in need
careful of the harvest to come
sometimes leaving the weeds
fearing killing the good plants
till in the harvest time to begin
separating the good from bad
some upon the trashing floor
others in the bins of labors
harvesting only the best/pure
stocking the storehouses full
some years to be very good
others to be lean and hard
yet coming the eternal day
when the harvest is done
having cultivated in mortality
the sickle put to rest today
burning the trash and bad
the fields no longer there!
