Mist Days

Famous quotes containing the words mist and/or days:

    You could almost see the brass on her gleaming,
    Not quite. The mist was to light what red
    Is to fire. And her mainmast tapered to nothing,
    Without teetering a millimeter’s measure.
    The beads on her rails seemed to grasp at transparence.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    The twelfth day of Christmas,
    My true love sent to me
    Twelve lords a-leaping.
    —Unknown. The Twelve Days of Christmas (l. 89–91)
