Aside From the Garden of Eden

by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Aside from the garden of Eden,
man’s great temptation took place
when he first received his seed catalog.

 

 

 

 

 

Note:

Today’s Unearthed Words are all about seed catalogs. 
If you are a new gardener, welcome to the joy of curling up on the couch with a cup of coffee and a notebook, and a seed catalog. If you’re a veteran gardener, you got this down. In either case, you’ll enjoy these verses and poems on a gardener’s favorite Winter activity: going through seed catalogs.
