YOU NEVER
CAN TELL
You
never can tell
when you send a word
Like an
arrow shot
from a bow
By an
archer blind,
be it cruel or kind,
Just
where it may
chance to go.

It may
pierce the
breast of your dearest friend,
Tipped
with it's
poison or balm,
To a
stranger's
heart in life's great mart
It may
carry its
pain or its calm.

You
never can tell
when you do an act
Just
what the result
will be,
But
with every
deed you are sowing a seed,
Though
the harvest
you may not see.

Each
kindly act
is an acorn dropped
In
God's productive
soil;
You may
not know,
but the tree shall grow
With
shelter for
those who toil.

You
never can tell
what your thoughts will do
In
bringing you
hate or love,
For
thoughts are
things, and their airy wings
Are
swifter than
carrier doves.

They
follow the
law of the universe...
Each
thing must
create its kind,
And
they speed
o'er the tracks to bring you back
Whatever
went out
from your mind.
