Growth
I had a plant that just would not grow.
No matter how much I watered and gave it sun light something was still missing don’t you know.
I took the plant over to the house of a friend,
before my eyes, it grew several inches right then.
I took the plant home and watched it for another day, it grew no more come what may.
As I asked, “Why oh why, beautiful plant of mine won’t you grow?” The leaves of the plant perked up and put on a show.
The leaves seem to say, “You never called me beautiful before this day, if you are consistent with such kind
words I will grow in every way.”
My plant is now six feet tall, touching the roof after all. The plant stands proud and strong. With saying beautiful words to it, I could no longer be wrong.
So pass these thoughts on to every man, woman, and child; be assured, it will be worth your while.
