Red Poppy

Famous quotes containing the words red and/or poppy:

    Red river, red river,
    Slow flow heat is silence
    No will is still as a river
    Still.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    The poppy that my heart was,
    formed to bind all mortals,
    made to strike and gather hearts
    like flame upon an altar,
    fades and shrinks, a red leaf
    drenched and torn in the cold rain.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
