Light Poem

Famous quotes containing the words light and/or poem:

    Serene stands the little captain,
    He is not hurried, his voice is neither high nor low,
    His eyes give more light to us than our battle-lanterns.

    Toward twelve there in the beams of the moon they surrender to us.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    With this pen I take in hand my selves
    and with these dead disciples I will grapple.
    Though rain curses the window
    let the poem be made.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
