Montane Rain Forests

Famous quotes containing the words rain and/or forests:

    “The flowers are ravined
    by bees, the fruit blossoms

    are thrown to the ground, the wind
    the rain forces everything.”
    —Charles Olson (1910–1970)

    “Ye say they all have passed away,
    That noble race and brave;
    That their light canoes have vanished
    From off the crested wave;
    That, mid the forests where they roamed,
    There rings no hunters’ shout;
    But their name is on your waters,
    Ye may not wash it out.”
    —Lydia Huntley Sigourney (1791–1865)
