A Garden in The Heart

EACH has a garden in his heart.

My mother says, "The thoughts are seeds,

And soon or late they all come up

And blossom into deeds."

I'd like mine to be beautiful,

And not just full of weeds.

—Selected.

Keep thy heart with all diligence;

For out of it are the issues of life.

—Proverbs iv. 23.
