We all grow up in this Garden called Life, <br />There are many inner and outer strifes, <br />In the silence, in the silence, <br />In this beautiful Garden called Life! <br />There are weeds and pests in this Garden called Life, <br />They are know as ignorance, greed, and vice. <br />In the silence, in the silence, <br />In this beautiful Garden called Life. <br />Every garden needs sunshine and rain, <br />In this garden you will find joy and pain. <br />In this silence, in the silence, <br />In this beautiful Garden called Life! <br />Plant sparsely, your harvest will be a pittance, <br />Plant bountifully, your harvest will be munificence, <br />In this silence, in the silence, <br />In this beautiful Garden called Life! <br />Did you plant deeds of joy, love and peace? <br />Or did you drop seeds of hatred, conflict, and gloom? <br />The world will know by the plants' bloom. <br />In the silence, in the silence, <br />In this beautiful Garden called Life!<br /><br />Anna B.
