Crowned Pigeon

Famous quotes containing the words crowned and/or pigeon:

    A centaur-herd,
    Wild-horses, crowned with grass,
    Swept among the feasting gods
    With fir-shoots
    Toward the wine-jars.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    They wait, each like a wooden decoy
    or soft like a pigeon or
    a sweet snug duck:
    until one moves, moves that dart-beak
    breaking over.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
