I need to plant a garden
deep inside my heart,
There's no time like the present
for planting time to start.

Each day I'll tend my garden
adding to it row by row,
And just like any garden
there will be weeds to hoe

I'll plant three rows of Kindness
a row of Faith or two,
I'll sow plenty of Forgiveness
and lots of Patience too

I'll weed away the Anger
and help Acceptance bloom,
I'll pull out all the Bitterness
to give Compassion room

Unlike the average garden
that needs lots of rain to grow,
My garden needs Understanding
deep within my heart to flow

The beauty of "my" garden
is not a place that you can see,
Unless I work hard daily
and its' beauty shows in me

I really enjoyed the sentiment here.
It is true that we reap what we sew.

Nicely done Peaches~
