Red River Parish

Famous quotes containing the words red, river and/or parish:

    I know a little garden-close
    Set thick with lily and red rose,
    Where I would wander if I might
    From dewy dawn to dewy night,
    William Morris (1834–1896)

    There are knives that glitter like altars
    In a dark church
    Where they bring the cripple and the imbecile
    To be healed.

    There’s a woden block where bones are broken,
    Scraped clean—a river dried to its bed
    Charles Simic (b. 1938)

    My stardust melody, the memory of love’s refrain.
    —Mitchell Parish (1901–1993)
