STREAMS IN THE DESERT

*STREAMS IN THE DESERTS*
Tiredness is not a sign to display weakness,
But rather a call for a recharge in order to utilize the body's ability to the fullness.
Failure of man to work smart makes man useful in bed,
And useless to the whole universe instead.
The dryness my throat is experience can not be compared to the one at Kariba Dam,
But getting used to telling lies of water levels will make you useless to the Garden of Eden like Adam.
It is when you work extra smart that you can merry after pulling through.
Nobody has ever put their ideas together to think through.
How much pain the feet of a farmer in a gum boot pass through?
Instead you all measure the amount of success they achieve.
