Tai Long Wan

Famous quotes containing the words long and/or wan:

    “Deep with the first dead lies London’s daughter,
    Robed in the long friends,
    The grains beyond age, the dark veins of her mother,
    Secret by the unmourning water
    Of the riding Thames.
    After the first death, there is no other.”
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    “bacterial creepers
    Wriggling through wounds
    Like elvers in ponds,
    Their wan mouths kissing the warm sutures,
    Cleaning and caressing,
    Creeping and healing.”
    —Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)
