A fruit, a flower, a noxious weed; Sweet charity or bitter greed; Love and honor or selfishness, Waste to worry or thrift to bless, What are you planting, friend? By and by we’ll garner our grain, What are you planting, friend? Health, contentment, grief or pain, June sunshine or November rain; Your garden is your work alone, And what it yields is what you’ve sown. What are you planting, friend?" . |19' Tomato Soup ulotkeró jJau Quka F/k Meals Bathroom Tissue Flaw Crystals Orange Juice W. F. H PACK W. F, COLD DRINK 4 PACK FROZEN 12.5 OZ, W. F.
