Reflected Wave

Famous quotes containing the words reflected and/or wave:

    “Summer involves going down as a steep flight of steps
    To a narrow ledge over the water. Is this it, then,
    This iron comfort, these reasonable taboos,
    Or did you mean it when you stopped? And the face
    Resembles yours, the one reflected in the water.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “I hear
    the tide turning. Last
    eager wave over-
    taken and pulled back
    by first wave of the ebb.”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
