Reaching Out



In door garden



            From My Garden

                   Drop a stone into the water -
                       In a moment it is gone,
                  but there are a hundred ripples
                      circling on, and on, and on.
                
                  Say an unkind word this moment-
                        in a moment it is gone
                   but there are a hundred ripples

circling on, and on, and on.

 Say a word of cheer and splendor -

in a moment it is gone

but there are a hundred ripples

circling on, and on, and on.
