Meadows Field

Famous quotes containing the words meadows and/or field:

    “Say, is there Beauty yet to find?
    And Certainty? And Quiet kind?
    Deep meadows yet, for to forget
    The lies, and truths, and pain? . . . oh!
    Stands the Church clock at ten to three?
    And is there honey still for tea?”
    —Rupert Brooke (1887–1915)

    “Give me the splendid silent sun
    with all his beams full-dazzling,
    Give me juicy autumnal fruit ripe and red from the orchard,
    Give me a field where the unmow’d grass grows,
    Give me an arbor, give me the trellis’d grape,
    Give me fresh corn and wheat, give me serene-moving animals teaching content,”
    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
