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)
