What Burpee's Seeds have done for me

Dear Sir:
Since I buy Burpee's seeds, I feel that I owe a debt of gratitude to you for the pleasure and profit that I have received from them.It was as if a new life had developed within me, as the beautiful flower comes from the tiny brown seed.

My flower garden grew wonderfully, day by day, as I watched and cared for it, until each wee seed had been transfigured into a beautiful image. I say an image, yes. images of the different stages in life, as I learned one morning when I went out to gather them. The sun was just peeping over the hills, making the dew drops sparkle like diamonds. I stood spell-bound. never had they looked more beautiful- Almost as beautiful as I imagine the gates of heaven to be.
