THE GIFT THAT PLANTS THE SEED The gift that plants the seed may be that soft spoken word A child does listen, even if you think you’re not heard Like when “I love you” is said to your spouse And the words that are used to run a house. The gift that plants the seed will grow in time In our young children with inquiring minds From the first day of school to the day of graduation The knowledge that grows is reason for celebration. The gift that plants the seed could be a helping hand So that the unemployed can again take a stand They will know that you care as you pass by Due to the gentle gleam that sparkles from your eye. The gift that plants the seed can be all of this and more But, if not carefully planted, may be the seed of war. |
