 The raw material required for growing a foliated tree; was its inconspicuous

little seeds, 
 
The raw material required for building a magnificent palace; was a plethora of
baked bricks and finely pulverized sand, 
 
The raw material required for forming the sky; was a blend of black and immaculate white clouds, 
 
The raw material required for making a computer; was a conglomerate of contemporary chips with a host of sophisticated software, 
 
The raw material required for forming the mammoth ocean; was astronomical
amounts of salt water, 
 
The raw material required for preparing appetizing curd; was decayed and left
over remains of bitter milk, 
 
The raw material required to fire a hollow nozzle gun; was a grey bullet; that
flew at electric speeds after swiftly releasing the trigger, 
 
The raw material required for digging a well in the stony ground; was a chiseled pickaxe compounded with onerous effort, 
 
The raw material required for riding a bicycle; was dexterous maneuvering of
the same alongwith the skill of fine balance, 
 
The raw material required for writing script; was the slender sculptured fountain pen replete with sapphire ink, 
 
The raw material required for igniting bundled logs of dry wood; was a minuscule and lead coated matchstick, 
 
The raw material required for cautioning against unscrupulous burglars; was a
contemporary alarm bell, 
 
The raw material required for soaring high in the air abreast of the hovering
clouds; was a pair of strong and robust wings, 
 
The raw material required to compose a poem; was a jugglery of intricate
words; alongwith perfect synchronization of rhyme, 
 
The raw material required to smile; was twin pairs of lips opening partially; radiating loads of compassionate warmth, 
 
The raw material required for spreading rampant riots; was baseless communalism, 
 
The raw material required for propagating corruption; was power hungry leaders
adroitly manipulating innocuous people, 
 
The raw material required for impregnating fear; was merciless torture of the
deprived; incessant tormenting of the underprivileged, 
 
The raw material required for dying; was forcible closure of the nostrils; 
succeeded by abrupt failure of the heart, 
 
And the raw material required for blissfully living; was unrelentingly caring
for our dear ones; diligently praying to the deity we believe; patronizing universally the essence of philanthropic love.
