Light Poem

Famous quotes containing the words light and/or poem:

“If you wish to grow thinner, diminish your dinner,
And take to light claret instead of pale ale;
Look down with an utter contempt upon butter,
And never touch bread till it’s toasted—or stale”

“A poem should be palpable and mute
As a globed fruit,
Dumb
As old medallions to the thumb,”
