Results and Roses

The man who wants a garden fair,
Or small, or very big,
With flowers growing here and there
Must bend his back and dig.

The things are mighty few on earth
That wishes can attain.
What e'er we want of any worth
We've got to work to gain

It matters not what goal you seek,
It's secret here reposes.
You've got to dig from week to week
To get results or roses.

- Edward Guest (1881-1959)
