Seventeen Rows for Your Garden
Plant five rows of peas -
preparedness, promptness, perserverence, politeness and prayer.
*
Next plant three rows of squash -
squash gossip, squash criticism and squash indifference.
*
Then plant five rows of lettuce -
let us be faithful, let us be loyal, let us be unselfish, let us love one another and let us be truthful.
*
No garden is complete without turnips -
turn up for church, turn up with a smile, turn up with a new idea and turn up with real determination.
