The Hand That Plants The Acorn Painting

In the distance, a large red oak shares it protective quality for both man and animal. It reminds us to: "Scatter seeds of kindness as you pass along the way for the pleasures of the many may often be traced to one, as the hand that plants the acorn shelters armies from the sun." Helen Wheeler Wilcox Full poem by Helen Wheeler Wilcox. I have know this work of hers since childhood and always wanted to paint an image honoring it. “Wishing Do you wish the world were better? Let me tell you what to do. Set a watch upon your actions, Keep them always straight and true. Rid your mind of selfish motives, Let your thoughts be clean and high. You can make a little Eden Of the sphere you occupy. Do you wish the world were wiser? Well, suppose you make a start, By accumulating wisdom In the scrapbook of your heart; Do not waste one page on folly; Live to learn, and learn to live If you want to give men knowledge You must get, ere you give. Do you wish the world were happy? Then remember day by day Just to scatter seeds of kindness As you pass along the way, For the pleasures of the many May be ofttimes traced to one, As the hand that plants an acorn Shelters armies from the sun." Ella Wheeler Wilcox
