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)
