THOUGHTS AND FLOWERS by ANNETTE WYNNE

First Line: THOUGHTS GROW LIKE FLOWERS OVERNIGHT
Last Line: THEY WILL ALWAYS WANT TO GROW.
Subject(s): APRIL; CHILDREN; GROWTH; PLANTATION LIFE; CHILDHOOD;

THOUGHTS grow like flowers overnight,
Opening at morning light,
Blossoming before you know—
Children, let the good thoughts grow!

If a weedy thought should sprout
In your garden, pull it out;
But keep the good thoughts watered so
They will always want to grow.
