The Talents !

A man summoned all his servants excepting none,
Entrusted his goods to them according to ability,
Five talents to one,two to another,to another one,
To a distant country he started giving responsibility,
The one received five talents,had quick trading done.

His strategy fetched him besides another five talent,
He who received two talents made yet another two,
Who received one hid in the earth,an act malevolent,
After long lord of the servants came to find who is who,
He reconciled accounts with them, the lord so benevolent.

Lord you delivered to me five talents,I gained another five,
The lord praised him, that he was faithful over a few things,
Promised him to set on many things and make him thrive,
Enter in to the joy of your lord, that promise reward brings,
The faith the driving force made blessings at his door arrive.

Lord you delivered to me two talents I gained two more,
''Well done,good and faithful'' the Lord so commended,
Further said to him to place him on higher goals,he swore,
''Enter in to the joy of your Lord'' generously rewarded,
The faith of the servant fetched him a great honour.

He who received one talent came and said,
The lord was hard,would reap where he did not sow,
Gather where he did not scatter,toughness he found,
Out of fear of the lord he hid the talent in earth below,
''Behold,What is yours''I safely hid in the ground.

The Lord condemned him'wicked and slothful' outright,
He made the talent idle showed his own laziness,
Took his talent and gave it to the abundant with delight,
''Throw the unprofitable servant to the outer darkness,
Let him weep, gnash teeth, and have no sight''.
