Fields

Famous quotes containing the word fields:

Bleach the bones of comrades slain,
Lovely lads and dead and rotten;
None that go return again.”

“The sun was like a great visiting presence that stimulated and took its due from all animal energy. When it flung wide its cloak and stepped down over the edge of the fields at evening, it left behind it a spent and exhausted world.”

of my lover’s face
that steals away my heart.
Just seeing the borders
of the fields on the borders
of her village
gives me instant joy.”
