Seed Plants

Famous quotes containing the words seed and/or plants:

    “This is a pain I mostly hide,
    but ties of blood, or seed endure,
    and even now I feel inside
    the hunger for his outstretched hand,
    a man’s embrace to take me in,
    the need for just a word of praise.”
    —Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)

    “When the
    Marne flowed by the plants nodded
    And above the glistering Gila
    A sunset as beautiful as the Athabasca
    Stammered. The Zambezi chimed. The Oxus
    Flowed somewhere.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)
