Gardening Quote of the Day

"In the evenings I scrape my fingernails clean, hunt through old catalogues for new seed, oil workboots and shears This garden is no metaphor - more a task that swallows you into itself earth using, as always, everything it can. (from November, Remembering Voltaire) "

(Jane Hirschfield, American poet)
