The Seed You Plant Is The Seed You Grow
When a seed of angerIs placed in fertile soil
Bursts of rage multiply 10 fold
When a seed of hate
Makes its way to a furrowed row
Corruption of thought erases all reason
When a seed of sadness
Swallows planted hopes
Desolation envelops what remains
When a seed of apathy
Seeps into growing life
There is no longer a sense of care
When a seed of passion
whittles apathetic reason
Energetic growth erupts
When a seed of compassion
Embeds itself in a garden of faith
Reason supplants irrationality
When a seed of joy
Floats into a land of despair
Then flowers of spring embellish hope
When a seed of love
whispers its song of comfort
Then a reason for belonging is insured
