Grown

Famous quotes containing the word grown:

    Those friends have left.
    Only stumps remain
    in the thickets
    and we’ve grown old, besides.
    Love’s been cut off
    at the roots.
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)

    I saw
    without words within me, saw
    as if my eyes
    had grown bigger and knew
    how to look without
    being told what it was they saw.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    she will not say how there
    must be more to living
    than this brief bright bridge
    of the raucous bed or even
    the slow braille touch of him
    like a heavy god grown light....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
