Wildflowers and Wings

                                        Kind hearts are the gardens, 

Kind thoughts are the roots, 
Kind words are the flowers, 
Kind deeds are the fruits,
 Take care of your garden 
And keep out the weeds, 
Fill it with sunshine 
Kind words and kind deeds

~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
