The quoted line is from the poem of ‘Persephone the Greek Goddess of Spring’ by Ingrid Jonker. The line ‘your eyes dried seeds, your body a husk of light’ means that—in your eyes dried seeds, it is trying to point out the daughter of Persephone, in which it symbolizes the way of her daughter going back to the underground while her mother didn’t even paid attention to the nature, in which she should. Your body a husk of light is trying to point out the last time Persephone saw her daughter.
