"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..."

"And those seed packets, envelopes of promise they are, far too large for the salt-spoonful of seeds they contain, and yet scarcely large enough for the wonders they hold. "

( -- Lesley Gordon, author)
