Roots of generosity

sorenbarrett



The tree of virtue sprouts from roots of generosity. Protected with bark of responsibility and self control its branches of honesty and  integrity, covered with leaves of respect, and fairness flower in buds of charity and kindness
 It produces fruits of love

          I hope to find more of these trees sorenbarrett, as sadly, it seems we live in such a world, comprised of a wide wicked wood, made by choices that perpetuate the gruesome growth of division and dissatisfaction.

          A very nice write indeed, bravo, and I hope that all is well.

            Thank you, Auburn. Your review and kind words are of great value. This tree lies within each of us if we only choose to nurture it.

            • AuburnScribbler

              You are very welcome, thank you for yours, and I will endeavour hard to tend to such a tree!

              I wish that we all had this tree growing in our yards dear poet, it would be a true Garden of Eden. Loved it!

              • sorenbarrett

                Thank you, Bella. I appreciate your review and kind words. I am certain that you have this tree growing in your garden and if not in your garden, it resides within you.

                And, don't forget, help process oxygen. Well spoken.

                  Well, said Dan, I look trees and breathe easier around them. Thank you for the comment and review they are appreciated.
