Famous quotes containing the words ports and/or tree:
“O polished perturbation! golden care!
That keep’st the ports of slumber open wide
To many a watchful night.”

“On every tree a bucket with a lid,
And on black ground a bear-skin rug of snow.
The sparks made no attempt to be the moon.
They were content to figure in the trees
As Leo, Orion, and the Pleiades.
And that was what the boughs were full of soon.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
