Sea Anemones

Famous quotes containing the words sea and/or anemones:

    They went to sea in a Sieve, they did,
    In a Sieve they went to sea:
    In spite of all their friends could say,
    On a winter’s morn, on a stormy day,

    Where seven anemones with down-dropped heads
    Wept tears of dew upon the stone beneath.
