Famous quotes containing the words soft and/or sheaves:

    It was a soft medicine
    that came from the sea into my mouth,
    moist and plump.
    I swallowed.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    A thousand golden sheaves were lying there,
    Shining and still, but not for long to stay—
    As if a thousand girls with golden hair
    Might rise from where they slept and go away.
    Edwin Arlington Robinson (1869–1935)
