The Fruits

Take in all the beauty around you And sing with it a song of Joy. Find in the mountain a Self-control. Find in a blooming flower some Patience. Find in a fire a cleansing Goodness. Find in the rain a blanket of Kindness. Find in the seasons some Faithfulness. Find in the stream a Gentleness. Find in a storm the Peace within. Find in the sunshine a Love like no other. Take in the fruits that surround you now And carry them with you always.
