I am the sower
I sow the seed
you bring it water, the air it will need
we"ll give it love, on which it can feed.
time is the next thing
all things we wish for, most things we get
times a great healer.
Darkness and noises we hear in the night
we should be frightened, the darkness is bright.
Water that comes, will fill up the eye
the lid can not wholed it, thats why we cry
thats not a bad thing, its not to be feared
its a valve built for safety, its well engineered.
Life has a reason, we all have been told
there is no reason, we all have been sold!

It is poem about of faith and hope, led to despairing consequences, like the biblical act of betrayal of Judah who sold his faith in Christ for few silver coins. It is faith and hope that of a candle is usually a symbol of, and whose wax can be a commodity in the marketplace but the light of the candle cannot be captured, is tars cannot be stopped until it burns to the promise it was made to.
The startling turn comes in the middle of the poem with the phrase 'darkness is bright', which sums up the entire message that the poem is trying to convey – it is new order where shadows are brighter than the sources of life and despair is new name for hope. I would say the title of the poem must not be taken from anything out side the body of the poem.
In my view, the title should be – Darkness Bright. this inverted expression is both startling and dramatic.
John Milton uses phrases like these in his epic poem Paradise Lost, as ‘darkness visible’, depicting the scene of hell, where everything against the divine order of Heavens.

Im sorry Im at a loss here....
Are you the writer of the poem and you are asking people to throw you a line for the title they think it should have?
OR
Are you, after finding this poem [ that you like, you need analysis etc.,] are you asking us if we have ever heard of it before, and do we know who wrote it, or what it is called?
Either way, I'm not sure what to say to you........ sorry!!
Have a good day!

AABB Rhyme scheme is simplistic... Show me some variance! Spice! Pizazz!
Possible title: Elements of Gardening.

I would try to make a word play with harvest, reap and sow.
I like your poem.
Should the lid wholed it or hold it?

i think your poem is really good,
Maybe call it Darkness in the night or truth in the light both go pretty well with your poem, keep it simple so you dont try to deflect away from the poem
