It's nice knowing
you may have kept your words

the famished farmers are busy
sowing seeds on tarmac and concrete

please titter not they sowed on diamond
and swear their seeds are germinating
we looked with a microscope and saw not a spec
though unused, the diamond still shone dazzling as ever

so say nothing and lets praise the farmers
persistence is the key, it''s all about working
it's difficult losing their attached chains and they've got to vent
nothing grates more than excellence to mediocrity

let's see if they can wheedle it out of you
but so far, I know now't for now
No sign, no dropped word or reportage yet
Not holding my breath, but so far so far
they are still on their toes, let's help them to stay on their toes.
