The Key
Patience is the Key for seekers of knowledge
without it, nothing can be learnt
As it measures one's commitment...

Hi Alid
This poem hits the spot for any one taking on a project - such as poetry or learning a language etc. I think your title is just right! and your language use is clear and understandable. I don't think there is much to improve - possibly dropping the second "the" in the first line.
"As it measures one's commitment" could be an alternative - but it's up to you - !.
An alternative to patience could be:
Patience: Meaning = Forbearance / good natured
Endurance: = Strength / survival / life
Forbearance = Patience
Perseverance = Tenacity, persistence, determination, pertinacity
I'm not suggesting you use them, they are just alternatives that could broaden your horizons.
Nice poem - one I hope to take on board. Keep it up
Love Mand xxxxx

Hi Alidzain
It's up to you, but personally I like "Key" I think it's more likely to attract the reader - but that's only my opinion. :)
Another option might be "The Key To Success" But it's your call - it would be interesting to see what others think.
