Ash Bed

Famous quotes containing the words ash and/or bed:

“The last cobwebs
of fog in the
black firtrees are flakes
of white ash in the world’s hearth.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

“Out of the cradle endlessly rocking,
Out of the mocking-bird’s throat, the musical shuttle,
Out of the Ninth-month midnight,
Over the sterile sands and the fields beyond, where the child
leaving his bed wandered alone, bareheaded, barefoot”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
