Hyacinths for the soul

One of nature's little miracles has been taking place on my kitchen table this week. 

If of thy mortal goods thou art bereft
And of thy slender store two loaves alone to thee are left,
Sell one, and with the dole
Buy hyacinths to feed thy soul.

(Sadi, Persian poet, 1184 - 1291)
