Comb Rows

Famous quotes containing the words comb and/or rows:

    And still we wear our uniforms, follow
    The cracked cry of the bugles, comb and brush
    Our pride and prejudice, doctor the sallow
    Initial ardor, wish to keep it fresh.
    Still we applaud the President’s voice and face.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    Over the low, barnacled, elephant-colored rocks,
    Come the first tide-ripples, moving, almost without sound, toward
    me,
    Running along the narrow furrows of the shore, the rows of dead clam shells;
    Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)
