Pale Skin

Famous quotes containing the words pale and/or skin:

    “Horse, you flame thrower,
    you shark-mouthed man,
    you laughter at the end of poems,
    you brown furry locomotive
    whipping the snow, I am
    a pale shadow beside you.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “I remember their smooth skin,
    those newly delivered,
    the pink skin and the serious China-blue eyes.
    They came from a mysterious country
    without the pang of birth,
    born quietly and well.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
