Buds

Famous quotes containing the word buds:

“Pale hands, pink-tipped, like Lotus buds that float
On those cool waters where we used to dwell,
I would have rather felt you round my throat
Crushing out life than waving me farewell!”
—Laurence Hope (1865–1904)

“I am weary of days and hours,
Blown buds of barren flowers,
Desires and dreams and powers
And everything but sleep.”

Spring wakens too; and my regret
Becomes an April violet,
And buds and blossoms like the rest.”
