I believe a leaf of grass is no less than the
journey-work of the stars. - Walt Whitman
Until man duplicates a blade of grass, nature can laugh at his so
called scientific knowledge. - Thomas Edison
I am the mown grass, dying at your feet,
The pale grass, gasping faintly in the sun.
I shall be dead, long, long ere day is done,
That you may say: "The air, to-day, was sweet."
I am the mown grass, dying at your feet. - Margaret Gilman Davidson,
Moritura
The moment one gives close attention to anything,
even a blade of grass, it becomes a mysterious, awesome,
indescribably magnificent world in itself. - Henry Miller
Sitting quietly, doing nothing,
Spring comes, and the grass grows by itself. - The Gospel According To
Zen
Breathless, we flung us on a windy hill, Laughed in the sun,
and kissed the lovely grass. - Rupert Brooke
Grass is the forgiveness of nature - her constant benediction.
Forests decay, harvests perish, flowers vanish,
but grass is immortal. - Brian Ingalls
Every blade of grass has it's Angel that bends over it
and whispers, 'grow, grow. - Talmud
Here I come creeping, creeping everywhere;
My humble song of praise
Most joyfully I raise To Him at whose command
I beautify the land,
Creeping, silently creeping everywhere. - Sarah Roberts Boyle, The Voice of
the Grass
