The Soil We Till

The furrows we plow quite often ends
In crooked and twisted tufted bends
We cannot clear all roots afield
The past disrupts the plow we wield

We till the soil and blade the seeds
Where grow the shafts of daily deeds
Nurture the wheat of fantacy
But Kismet thrives On legacy

We farm in our given lot of time
Our very substance the enzyme
And happenstance the wind of stir
Makes for us a misty blur

We share it in different portions
Each soul weighing separate notions
And each decipher states its act
To us it seems chaoitic fact

But chaos is the soup of bake and
We've yet to see, what it will make

Greetings, I'm very new to this site. I've read several of your poems and like them very much. This one was great but I just didn't get the line "but Kismet thrives the boyancy", it seems a bit off theme. Am I reading it wrong?

Thank you for the comment and I changed it to legacy. Perhaps easer to understand.

Such a beautiful poem.  We are just part of Nature's grand scheme  ~ and if Nature is a gardener like me -- chaos will reign.

You have me thinking with this one.
