Edward Thomas Quote

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.


'Tall Nettles' (1917)


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.

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.

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.

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.
