"Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you plant."
~ Robert Louis Stevenson

When sowing in a fallow field A bumper crop you'll hope to yield For many folks, do a good deed Think of others when planting seed No two days will e'er be the same The farmer always takes the blame Some crops are never meant for feed Think of others when planting seed Share your harvest and you will find Daily blessings for being kind Don't desire avarice or greed Think of others when planting seed If one crop withers and then fails Plant again, persistence prevails Take this warning for you should heed Think of others when planting seed Do not have a bad attitude For everything show gratitude Tomorrow you just might succeed Think of others when planting seed May your garden be filled with sprouts And your days not be plagued by doubts Do not allow contempt to breed Think of others when planting seed Your days will bear sweet ripened fruit And grow when love has taken root Keep your field free of tangled weeds Think of others when planting seeds
