A RECIPE FOR A FRUITFUL LIFE
A cup of thoughtfulness,
A pint of good cheer,
A big cup of patience
A cup of honesty so dear,
A measure of effort
A gallon of goodwill,
A whole heart to give
Some peace to still.
Fold them together with love
the order does not matter
For whatever you mix will
be a very loving batter.
Wrap up with sweet charity
as you give your self away,
And you and those you serve
will be better day by day.
