Pounds Dry

Famous quotes containing the words pounds and/or dry:

    When I was one-and-twenty
    I heard a wise man say,
    “Give crowns and pounds and guineas
    But not your heart away;
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)

    I am renewed by death, thought of my death,
    The dry scent of a dying garden in September,
    The wind fanning the ash of a low fire.
    What I love is near at hand,
    Always, in earth and air.
    Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)
