Fresh Water Fish

Famous quotes containing the words fresh, water and/or fish:

    Band of iris-flowers
    above the waves,
    you are painted blue,
    painted like a fresh prow
    stained among the salt weeds.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    But oh, not the hills of Habersham,
    And oh, not the valleys of Hall
    Avail: I am fain for to water the plain.
    Downward, the voices of Duty call—
    Downward, to toil and be mixed with the main,
    The dry fields burn, and the mills are to turn,
    And a myriad flowers mortally yearn,
    And the lordly main from beyond the plain
    Calls o’er the hills of Habersham,
    Calls through the valleys of Hall.
    Sidney Lanier (1842–1881)

    Where no great fish venture
    nor small fish glitter and dart,
    only the anemones and flower
    of the wild sea-thyme
    cover the silent walls
    of an old sea-city at rest.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
