Planting More Than Seeds...


 We kick up the dust
and scatter seeds of trust!
So another garden-year begins...
(yes! earliest planting is in!)

 Hope looks pretty plain at the onset,
But oh, the bounty and beauty it blooms into!
...all by the grace of the Creator.

Hope is the seed dropped into sod
Where what becomes is up to God

Hope braves the element of Now
Trusting God with the When and How

Hope tends the plot; it tills and plants
To at least give the bloom a chance

Hope does not abuse happiness
Not eats the bread of idleness

Hope drops the seed into the sod
Nay, plants it in the hands of God
