Sky Watch

Seeds of Faith
The fields are all empty
Barren and dry
Without any fruit
Crops have withered and died
The soil so thirsty
It’s land now hungry too
Without proper nutrients
It produces no food
You’ve got to turn up the heat
In the midst of the drought
Plant seeds of faith
So they can sprout
You reap what you sow
Of that there’s no doubt
So plant seeds of faith
So they can sprout
When the fields appear empty
Don’t give up in despair
Irrigate the crops
With your tears in prayer
When famine threatens
Just call on Christ
He’ll feed the hungry
He’s the bread of life
You’ve got to turn up the heat
In the midst of the drought
Plant seeds of faith
So they can sprout
You reap what you sow
Of that there’s no doubt
So plant seeds of faith
So they can sprout

This photograph is beautiful and represents your poem/story very well.
A drought is devastating for those who rely on growing crops and harvesting them for their livelihood. I admire how people in this situation remain strong and hopeful in the face of such adversity.

A beautiful combination, the blue of the sky and the gold in the wheat. Enjoyed the verse also.
