Silver Wyre Drawers

Famous quotes containing the words silver and/or drawers:

    “Listen where thou art sitting
    Under the glassy, cool, translucent wave,
    In twisted braids of lilies knitting
    The loose train of thy amber-dropping hair;
    Listen for dear honour’s sake,
    Goddess of the silver lake,
    Listen and save.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    “your bare feet on the floors of silence
    speak in rhymed stanzas to the furniture,
    solemn chests of drawers and heavy chairs
    blinking in the sun you have let in!”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
