Food And Medicine For The Soul

Garden Poem of the Day

The Diehards (Excerpt)
By Ruth Pitter

What do we look for as reward?
Some little sounds, and scents, and scenes
A small hand darting strawberry-ward
A woman's aprons full of greens.

The sense that we have brought to birth
Out of the cold and heavy soil,
The blessed fruits and flowers of earth
Is large reward for our toil.
