Desert Garden

Famous quotes containing the words desert and/or garden:

“They cannot scare me with their empty spaces
Between stars—on stars where no human race is.
I have it in me so much nearer home
To scare myself with my own desert places.”

Where shall I plant anew—
For my bed, that once was covered with thyme,
Is all overrun with rue?”
