Quote of the Day


-- Quote of the Day -- 








"I am odorous of the pine forest,

The scent of pine-cones is in my hair.

I smell of wild mint, and the tamarack swamps.

The juice of alder-berries is on my lips, and the brown stain of hazel on my fingers.

I am flecked with the dust of moth-wings, 

and powdered with the pollen from the hearts of calla-lilies.

I am wind-tawned and sun-browned.

Wearing the marks of the open.

I reek of freedom."


~ Muriel Strode; At the Roots of Grasses (1923)
