I Have Seen Women Looking at Jewelry Ads

by Barbara Kingsolve

I have seen women looking at jewelry ads with a misty eye and one hand resting on the heart,
and I only know what they’re feeling because that’s how I read the seed catalogs in January.

 

 

 

 

 

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.
