Blade of Grass

The moment one gives close attention to anything, 

even a blade of grass it becomes a mysterious, 

awesome, indescribably magnificent world in itself.   

ஐ Henry Miller

Not I, nor anyone else can travel that road for you.

You must travel it by yourself.

It is not far. It is within reach.

Perhaps you have been on it since you were born, and did not know.

Perhaps it is everywhere -- on water and land.   

ஐ Walt Whitman

In the world's audience hall, 

the simple blade of grass sits on the 

same carpet with the sunbeams, 

and the stars of midnight.  

ஐ Rabindranath Tagore

There is not one blade of grass, 

there is no color in this world 

that is not intended to make us rejoice.  

ஐ John Calvin
