I planted a hand <br />And there came up a palm, <br />I planted a heart <br />And there came up balm. <br />Then I planted a wish, <br />But there sprang a thorn, <br />While heaven frowned with thunder <br />And earth sighed forlorn.<br /><br />Christina Georgina Rossetti<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-planted-a-hand/
