How well does your garden grow? Is it true you reap what you sow? The point to make with my green thumb, is when a crop is finished, it is done. A bitter crop can be had, but doesn’t mean the ground is bad. What first looks lush, may only be show, the fruit be withered in the row. So plow back under the done-for crop, no use continuing when it is time to stop. Select your seeds and cull the rest, the next crop to grow should be your best. The seasons change, the years go by, many a crop is grown under the sky. A tiller learns from experience best, how to grow crops that beat the rest. A harvest of hope and love to share this is your garden with its crop to bear. |

Very deep is the meaning like the roots of the plants. Some seeds are sewn in weak ground and barely a friut is to be found. Ecellent write mister Logan Do not fear going forward slowly, |

There is much to learn from the garden and the fruits that it reaps. Hidden in each seed that is planted is the potential for a fruitful harvest. Only time and patience will tell if we have achieved success. Wonderfully written! All writing comes |

The seasons change, the years go by, many a crop is grown under the sky. A tiller learns from experience best, how to grow crops that beat the rest. A harvest of hope and love to share this is your garden with its crop to bear. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We do reap what we sow...that is so true. The wisdom comes from learning, and you said it best with this inspiring poem. Keep planting those seeds of wisdom! Hugs, Deb [This message has been edited by BloomingRose (edited 07-29-2001).] |
