House Leaves

Famous quotes containing the words house and/or leaves:

    To have no son, no wife,
    No house or land still seemed quite natural.
    Only a numbness registered the shock
    Of finding out how much had gone of life,
    How widely from the others.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Certain branches cut
    certain leaves fallen
    the grapes
    cooked and put up
    for winter
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
