Diligence Wins

In each endeavor which we make,
Will it stand or will it "quake"?
We must spot if it be weak
And guard against the smallest "leak".

If we have a weakened link
Then our plan we should rethink.
Stronger links may even fail
When weak links falter, break or ail.

Tiny leaks can cause a "drain"
And sap away what should be gain.
Left untended they become
An outlook which can be quite glum.

Diligence and oversight
Will remedy and set aright
Hidden weakness, "leaks" or flaws
Which could defeat our plan or cause.

"The thoughts of the diligent tend only to plenteousness; but of every one that is hasty only to want."
Proverbs 21:5 KJV
