# The Money Tree #

A calm poem about growth, patience, and hidden rewards. It uses the metaphor of a “money tree” to show that success comes from time, courage, and renewed faith—reminding us, as a new year entered, that belief is the real seed for all that flourishes. 🌱✨

The Money Tree

I planted last year
a so-called money tree.

I planted effort,
watered patience,
and waited.

This tree did not grow money—
it grew time,
it grew courage,
and the faith to begin again.

It grew the proof
that nothing blooms
without belief.

Eve of a New Year

  4. I love the last line: “…nothing blooms without belief.” This is very true about so many things in life. Faith, relationships, friendships, life goals, skills, etc. — they cannot grow if we do not believe or believe in ourselves. Inspiring poem! Have a good day. 😊💜
