I Don’t Believe the Half I Hear

by Carolyn Wells

I don't believe the half I hear,
Nor the quarter of what I see!
But I have one faith, sublime and true,
That nothing can shake or slay;
Each spring, I firmly believe anew
All the seed catalogs say!

 

 

 

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.

Words inspired by the garden are the sweetest, most beautiful words of all.
I Don’t Believe the Half I hear
