Talents!

Heres a poem I made for personal progress.  Its about the parable of the talents. =)


Here's to you five talents.
Here's to you two.
Here's to you one talent.
Now do what you must do.

Now go my faithful servants
Use your talents for good.
Be a lightened candle.
Have knowledge, understood?

The servants went their way 
Each to their own places.
They continued their day
All with happy faces.

The one with five gained five, 
The one with two gained two.
But the one with one 
Knew not what he should do.

For he was afraid, and didn't work.
And buried his under the dirt.
And he gained nothing my friends,
And his joy came to an end.

The master came and praised the ones
Who wisely increased their sums.
But sad was he at the man who knew
That work he shirked and was not true.

For faith is the opposite of fear,
And so when you look in the mirror.
Believe in yourself, for you really do
Have talents and greatness inside of you.
