"For the earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth
forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God..."
Gardening Quote of the Day
"The wild gander leads his flock through the cool night,
Ya-honk! he says, and sounds it down to me like an invitation:
The pert may suppose it meaningless, but I listening close,
Find its purpose and place up there toward the wintry sky.
(from Song of Myself No. 14)
"( -- Walt Whitman, American poet, essayist)
