Pink Air

Famous quotes containing the words pink and/or air:

“All night your moth-breath
Flickers among the flat pink roses. I wake to listen:
A far sea moves in my ear.”

“It is true that the rivers went nosing like swine,
Tugging at banks, until they seemed
Bland belly-sounds in somnolent troughs,
That the air was heavy with the breath of these swine,
The breath of turgid summer, and
Heavy with thunder’s rattapallax....”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
