Bird Creature

Famous quotes containing the words bird and/or creature:

    The caged bird sings
    with a fearful trill
    of things unknown
    but longed for still
    and his tune is heard
    on the distant hill
    for the caged bird
    sings of freedom.
    Maya Angelou (b. 1928)

    From the shrivelling gray
    silk of its cocoon
    a creature slowly
    is pushing out
    to stand clear....
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
