quote planting

"When you pour a packet of seeds into your hand and begin to place them the proper distance apart in the furrow, you become not just a participant, but a custodian of like."

poem

Maytime Magic

by Mabel Watts

A little seed
For me to sow...
A little earth
To make it grow.

A little hole,
A little pat...
a little wish,
And that is that.

A little sun,
A little shower...
A little while,
And then - a flower!
