I didn't know the names of the flowers
now my garden is gone.

As well as any bloom upon a flower I like the dust on the nettles, never lost Except to prove the sweetness of a shower.

All the flowers of all the tomorrows are in the seeds of today.

Roses red and violets blew, And all the sweetest flowers that in the forest grew.
- Edmund Spenser
