Four of us are in your field
But our differences keep us at yield

First, a one that is no fool
Though he resembles a gardener's tool

Next, one difficult to split in two
And a girl once had one as big as her shoe

Then, to the mind, one's a lovely bonder
And truancy makes it grow fonder

Last, a stem connecting dots of three
Knowing all this, what are we?

Commenters are obviously correct, it's the card suits...I don't understand how this site works yet, but why is the riddle still "Unsolved"?  many are classified as such, so how does one get notice of the solutions?
