living

Each day,by us,there must be sown
Some noble,worthy,thriving seeds;
Some time each day to care for them
To keep out all the weeds.

For if we careless be at work,
The weds steal in and sap the good.
And when a barren plant is found
Where sturdy once it stood.

A seed is likened to a life-
It must in some way grow each day,
It must be nurtured with good deeds
To mark its beuty in the way!
